There is a serious question about how the Scottish Government acts when promoting legislation that pushes at the edges of devolution and how it submits itself to the scrutiny and accountability of the UK Parliament. It's not that the edges of devolution should not be pushed. They absolutely should. When doing so results in wins, those wins could lead to significant powers being opened to the Parliament for use. Even when judgements go against the Scottish Government, they can act to clarify the UK’s infamously messy constitution in useful ways. This needs to be a strategy with a purpose.
