I'm not aware of the SNP getting a "free pass"?
However the SNP have always promoted an inclusive, civic nationalism. That's why so many Scots of English origin have chosen to settle and build lives in Scotland. UKIP, in contrast, peddle an insular, xenophobic nationalism, based on fear of "the other".
It's not difficult to see the difference.
