Scotland Says No to Independence: What Now?

World Business Report

Available for over a year

We hear reactions and analyses from London and Scotland's financial centres, in the aftermath of Scotland's choice to stay as part of the UK. Will the promises made during the independence campaign be lost? Scots from the country's biggest industries tell us what they think should happen now, and if they feel like this will still herald a change in direction for the 44% who voted for independence. The economic aftermath is mulled over in our studio with Gordon Macintyre Kemp - the leader of the pro-independence Business for Scotland group -- and Colin Borland, the head of external affairs for the Federation of Small Businesses. We also hear reaction from around the world - Australia, Spain and Canada - to the result.
