I'm not sure. Labour don't have an English majority even when they're doing very well and the Conservatives are opposed to devolution so I would expect the status quo to continue for a while, but on the other hand, I think the current system is incredibly broken.
That is the case under the current arrangements where Labour don't have to win 40 English seats because they win 40 Scottish ones. If Scotland were independent one might expect the Labour party to pitch themselves a little to the right or for English voters, free of the counter-balance of Scottish voters to realise that they want a social democracy really and vote for the English Labour Party.
