I don't think Scotland wants a less hateful Westminster government. I think it wants out.
They had the option of a less hateful Labour party last time round and they showed zero interest.Places like Sunderland and Cornwall have already been deceived by the Tory right. It doesn't mean they're going to see it; not without someone with a stronger message from the left helping them to see it. That's demonstrably not Corbyn. (I'd be very surprised if it was Khan either.)

This might be our only hope, though it sounds far fetched:
Scotland calls independence referendum, and looks certain to break up the UK
This prospect, along with zero change in immigration, and a slump in the economy, cause those in places like Cornwall and Sunderland to realise they were wrong to be decieved by the Tory right
Labour Come to power on the back of the tories falling apart and the failing economy
Those inclined to Scottish independence are less hateful of a more left wing Westminster Govt
Article 50 is stopped in it's tracks as we try to keep Scotland in.
