Nowhere, anywhere was that said by anyone with the power to bind the Scottish or UK Parliaments. If Scotland votes for a party or parties on that basis it’s extremely likely there will be another referendum which is why the UK Government are currently putting a lot of effort into “selling” the union in Scotland.
Even the unionist parties are campaigning to “stop” indyref2 because they know the position isn’t tenable to say once in a generation/once in a lifetime.
If voters had backed second EU referendum parties they would have got a second vote. As it happens they were resoundingly rejected, but
that’s democracy.
