There were multiple localized outbreaks in border areas and cities with international airports, because of lapses in quarantine measures.
If Scotland wants to implement a zero-covid policy while England doesn't, they'll need to limit all cross-border traffic to a trickle, with supervised quarantine for everyone who does cross the border, and they'll need to treat a large area behind the border as a buffer zone where a single case outside quarantine immediately results in a lockdown.
Not impossible, but unlikely to be popular before it's successfully implemented.

In several countries, things like mask laws and business closures have been struck down by courts because it was found that the state doesn't actually have the authority to impose that.
