Wajaalenews;The leaders of the main UK parties have made a plea for a vote against Scottish independence, as they campaigned north of the border ahead of the referendum.
Prime Minister and Tory leader David Cameron said he would be “heartbroken” in the event of a “Yes” vote.
Labour leader Ed Miliband said the case for the Union came from the “head, heart and soul”. Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg also urged Scots to vote “No”.
Scots First Minister Alex Salmond said his opponents could not be trusted.
Mr Cameron and Mr Miliband abandoned their usual Prime Minister’s Questions session at Westminster to head north and, although the three leaders campaigned separately, they each called on voters to keep Scotland in the United Kingdom.
The three leaders have backed a plan of action spearheaded by former prime minister Gordon Brown, which they have said would see work begin on the handover of new powers on 19 September, the day after the referendum.
Speaking in Edinburgh, Mr Cameron said he was often asked whether his party would find it easier to win Westminster elections without Scotland, which currently has one Tory MP.
He responded: “My answer to that is, I care far more about my country than I do about my party.
“I care hugely about this extraordinary country, this United Kingdom that we’ve built together.
“I would be heartbroken if this family of nations that we’ve put together – and we’ve done such amazing things together – if this family of nations was torn apart.”
