When Scotland decided to stay in the union voting ‘No’ with 55 percent, British unionists took to the streets of Glasgow celebrating Scotland’s decision to stay in the UK. But the rally soon descended into violent clashes, with at least 6 people arrested.

"Six people have been arrested so far in relation to the incident in George Square. Retrospective inquiries will be carried out, which may lead to further arrests,” said a police spokesman.

A spokesperson from Police Scotland told local media that there were about 100 people in each group. But then 'Yes' supporters started leaving the square, which became dominated by unionists. However, other sources said that there were several hundred activists from both sides.
