I hadn't heard that quote by Gordon Brown and I can't believe I'm agreeing with him either but he has absolutely put his finger on my major issue with this campaign. Alex Salmond had been trying to make out that anyone who disagrees with him has no right to consider themselves Scottish and that is severely not on.
I was hoping very much that the reason the No voters weren't much in evidence was because they feared the (over)reactions of a quite aggressive fringe of the Yes voters and being branded not Scottish enough and were keeping their heads down until polling day when they'd quietly come out and make their voices heard democractically. I'm glad to see that seems to have happened. :)
