The SNP keep winning elections because the electorate regard the SNP as being their best choice of political party to vote for. It does not mean they support independence. Nicola Sturgeon knows that.

So mandate or no mandate, the referendum result is unlikely to be much different from what it was before. Unless the sensible Conservative Party can persuade the Scots that there is no economic case for separation, in which case it will be a lot different!
