When you write "if either of them vote not to (save the Union of the UK) then it should go" I assume you are referring specifically to the Union between England and Scotland.

If Scotland were to quit the Union of the UK then the Union of the UK would just carry on without her (as a Union of Wales, Northern Ireland and England). It would not "go" (your word from the quote above) if Scotland left the UK.
