Scottish independence referendum produced its verdict: people chose to keep the “status quo”. In fact, 55,30% of Scottish voters (about 2 million votes) answered “no” to the question “do you want to obtain independence?” . This result would mean a missed chance to someone and the triumph of tradition to someone else. It’s pretty obvious though that many were relieved in the City: to understand why, it would be enough to think about how many problems would have arisen over Her Majesty army bases management if Scotland had voted in favour of independence.
However, although people voted “no”, thing are about to evolve: in fact, British Prime Minister David Cameron convinced the Scots not to leave the Union Jack by promising a greater level of autonomy and Downing Street will have to work in order to honour that promise.
