When I first read this question my immediate reaction was to suggest what I would do if faced with the same problem. I would open the text in the story editor, select all, and cut to the clipboard. The story editor is now empty. I would then open a new, blank LibreOffice/OpenOffice Writer document and paste the text into it. I would use the search and replace functions in Writer to search for double spaces and replace with a single space. When finished I would select all the text, copy to the clipboard, go back to the story editor in Scribus, and paste it in. My life is easier if I don't use Scribus as a word processor and I don't use Writer as a layout application. Please feel free to modify one of the scripts mentioned above to do the job, but for me search and replace already exists in LO/OO Writer, so why should I reinvent the wheel?
