Give them a referendum. A proper one. People living in Scotland who were born to Scottish parents.
Then, if they want out of the Union it would be dead wrong to stop them.
(Just figure out some way to not have to worry about border checks and I'd be happy).

Welsh language is a funny one. The Welsh are fiercely patriotic but most of them don't speak Welsh. We go to the trouble of setting up and funding a Welsh language tv station for them and it regularly got ZERO viewers (not an exaggeration, literally no one watched). It is now defunct (rightly so).
