I believe something very deeply. That Britain's national interest is best served in a flexible, adaptable and open European Union and that such a European Union is best with Britain in it.

There is a growing frustration that the EU is seen as something that is done to people rather than acting on their behalf. And this is being intensified by the very solutions required to resolve the economic problems.

There is not, in my view, a single European demos.

It would be wrong to suggest that Scotland could not be another such successful, independent country.

I've always said, not giving too much away, I'm a believer in having all your stars on the pitch.

The world economy is more stable than for a generation ... Our hugely sophisticated financial markets match funds with ideas better than ever before.

I don't want to be Prime Minister of England, I want to be Prime Minister of the whole of the United Kingdom.
