Westminster MPs aren't the same ones who work at Holyrood. The MPs for the Scottish Parliament only work for Scotland, the Westminster ones work for Britain.

But yes, I agree, there should be separate parliaments for all countries in Britain, and Westminster should be done away with - or used to house the new exclusively English government. None of this Britain/UK/England/Scotland/Wales shite. Separate countries, separate governements. And I want to be able to put SCOTTISH on my passport. After all, there's no such country as Britain - it's a name given to a collection of three.
What? Are you going to throw the Ulster rabble to the Irish? Or let the Scots deal with it? Or, let them become their own nation? That would be fun to watch.
