God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

The majority of Scots got scared into not breaking away.

Sorry to disallusion you, but I for one (and I am just one of many) was not scared in 2014, or 1979 as it happens. Unless you spoke to each individual who voted no personally, do not make assumptions on our behalf.

what about those people who did not vote in Scotland whose side were they on the yes or the or the no

Another made up non fact.
One day you'll grasp 55% said No because we didn't want independence.
I could easily throw some non sensical remark about Yes voters but it would be based on my personal opinion.
Mind does make me realise why Nicola Sturgeon wants to be a shepherdess !
Meeeehhh Meeehhh

It is a point of history that the No campaign was a negative one. I don't need to prove it as we all lived through it and the memory of it is still very fresh. You are insulting your own intelligence if you claim otherwise.

And the yes campaign was a clear failureThe only good that came out of it was the stepping down of the fat man.

I'm wondering how you ascertained your information did you use a crystal ball mebbe, pixie dust ?
As you voted Yes and where rather vociferous in your support of the yes campaign I'm sure the quiet logical thought process that went along with voting No is totally lost on you,maybe you should rejoin your flock and let the shepherdess do the thinking for you .

I was not scared of voting NO, am glad to be part of the 55%

Ahh yes 12000 people vote in an online poll from a city with a population of 2.7 Million.
That's really statisically significant.

And reading their comments in the Manchester Evening News the majority were obviously having a laugh.

And reading all the "NO" voters remarks on here they are obviously trying hard to raise a chuckle never mind a laugh.

All I did was ask Rheghead, as to why I was "scared" into voting no, he could'nt answer me. Was I trying to raise a laugh, no.

We would be crazy to create a new state with the north of England. Their GDP per capita is much lower than ours which means we would be subsidising their benefits programme from day one. In particular we should avoid the north east. Better would be a confederacy with south east England. Their GDP per capita is similar to ours and our outlooks are similar.
