Political idiocy even to rule it out now, particularly as Sturgeon's speech was deliberately open to multiple interpretations.

Exactly, it just makes UK gov look unreasonable and undemocratic, which boosts independence case even further

Scottish voters were told in Indy Ref 1 that the only safe way to stay in the EU was to vote down independence.
-
Exactly. Whether or not one supports independence, this broken promise plus the mandate (to be clear: leaving the EU was explicitly given as an example of exceptional change in the SNP platform) means the SNP has very good grounds for calling for a vote.

A big selling point / scare tactic to remain part of the UK was EU membership. Nicola Sturgeon may have ruled out UDI but a bad
#Brexit will change that. -
Re: UDI. I know there's the Rhodesian precedent but they had a geographical advantage and also their own armed forces had the UK overcome the logistics of sending a force down there to sort them out. We'd be overrun within hours by Fred Karno of Westminster

They actually lost their majority, so not a clear mandate.

No they didn't. They lost seats but they are still the majority. SNP 35 Scons 13 Slab 7 Lib Dums 4 & some of those seats look set to be reclaimed when another GE is held.
