I would argue the fear of the unknown was a powerful tool for the No vote in Scotland and that is the same here.

I don't agree - not to the same extent in any case.
There is no widely understood picture of exactly what the EU does for us, what the benefits are. There is only a vague sense of interfering Eurocrats.
I would argue that there is far less sense of unknown for the UK outside the EU than there was for Scotland outside the UK.
