By the time they get round to another vote it will have been around 10 years since the last vote. It could be argued that is a new generation with 10 years worth of new voters.
If the SNP go into the election with a platform of another referendum and the people vote for it, then the mandate is there. They don't need approval from Bozza or anyone in England. If people want to exit they should be allowed, there is a precedent for that in this country...

My take is that polticians and political parties can't bind future Parliaments. So politicians pronouncing "once in a lifetime" or "once in a generation" has no legal standing, it's just spin or an interpretation of how they believe the situation is.
