If you have a look at the time the SNP spent as a minority government, their spending plans were voted through by the support of the Conservatives, under opposition from Labour.Comment

MigrationWatchUK | The SNP and Immigration ? An open door to England?
Labour concessions to the SNP on immigration would destroy any effective immigration control for England - that is the conclusion of a Migration Watch UK report released today. With opinion polls pointing to a landslide victory for the SNP in Scotland but a hung Parliament nationally, the SNP’s leaders are already boasting about the concessions they plan to extract from a minority Labour government. One of their long standing desires is a more open immigration system for Scotland and they may very well seek to use a hung Parliament to bring this about. They have already made it clear that they would like to see current rules relaxed across every major category of migration - work, study, family and asylum - despite polls showing that 64% of Scots want immigration reduced and only 5% want it increased

I would suggest that the SNP will poll considerably less than the polls project in Scotland - as many voters in Scotland did when they rejected the referendum and thus will confound the polls voting for the interests of Britain rather than those short sighted and self serving Nationalists who have no sense of the historical and vital importance of Britain as an indipsensible force for good in the International Arena.
