Well maybe SOME voted to break away but that is not what you said. If Tai didn't want to be British why did he SAY that he was proud to wear this "bad boy", the Union Flag, in the World Cup?
How can you use an argument about the people "that did not vote would have voted yes"?. You can't argue about if's,but's and maybe's. I could say that they would have voted "no" but I can't because I don't know.
