“The people of Scotland have spoken and it is a clear result.

“They have kept our country of four nations together and like millions of other people I am delighted.

“As I said during the campaign it would have broken my heart to see our United Kingdom come to an end.

“And I know that sentiment was shared by people not just across our country but around the world because of what we have achieved together in the past and what we can do together in the future.

“So now it is time for our United Kingdom to come together and to move forward.

“A vital part of that will be a balanced settlement, fair to people in Scotland and importantly to everyone in England, Wales and Northern Ireland as well.”
