There is zero chance of that happening before the election, yes.

The only major pro-EU voice in parliament now (discounting regional parties) is Lib Dems.

Worth noting that the largest "regional" party, the SNP, has 54 MPs which is six times the 9 MPs that the Lib Dems have.

Yes, but their upside is limited. They already have almost all Scottish seats, and they are not going to win elsewhere.
