Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans welcomed the re- . suit of the referendum on Scottish independence. “I am absolutely delighted that the people of Scot­ land have decisively rejected the breaking up of the United Kingdom and rejected independ­ ence,” he said. “I am Welsh and British in equal measure, and am proud to be both, and it is clear that this is also the case for the Scots. “I have always believed that the strength of the United Kingdom is in its constituent parts work­ ing closely together to al: low the country to continue to punch above its weight on the world stage and share in a sense of national identity and purpose. “In the Ribble Valley we have Dunsop Bridge, the
