There are about 100 yes supporters still in Glasgow’s George Square, looking tired and dejected, reports Libby Brooks. There is a police presence but no aggression, not even chanting now,
just huddling in the early morning cold.

This is from Johann Lamont, the Labour leader in Scotland.
On the Today programme she says her son, who is 17, voted for the first time yesterday.
Guardian editor Alan Rusbridger gives his reaction to the result. This is not a vote for no change, he says.
Fife - No 55.05%, yes 44.95%
The Fife result is in.
No: 139,788 (55.05%)
Yes: 114,118 (44.95%)
The BBC says this means it is now arithmetically impossible for the yes side to win.
David Cameron has confirmed that he will speak within the hour.
And here’s the result from Argyll and Bute.
The Argyll & Bute result was 37,143 votes for No, compared to 26,324 for Yes.
David Cameron will make a statement at about 7am, the BBC says. And Alex Salmond is also expected to speak at the Dynamic Earth centre in Edinburgh soon.
Edinburgh - No 61.1%, 38.9%
Edinburgh has voted no.
No: 194, 638 (61.1%)
Yes: 123,927 (38.9%)
Alistair Darling, leader of the Better Together campaign, has posted this on Twitter.
The pollsters seem to have been out by about five points, says James Ball. He suggests the phenomenon of “shy” no voters might be to blame.
