It does have to be said that a no-deal Brexit makes Scottish independence even more difficult if not impossible on economic grounds.
Thus a no-deal is actually in the interests of Unionists in Scotland, regardless of what popular opinion might say. After all their primary concern is the continued existance of the Union regardless of the democratic wishes of any segment of the populace.
You could say that from their perspective it's a perfect opportunity to bring the Nationalists to heel.
