UK PM, David Cameron, may have quit if Scotland voted to leave the UK

British Prime Minister David Cameron thought about resigning if Scotland voted to leave the UK, he said in an interview published on Sunday.

Cameron told The Sun newspaper he "absolutely" considered quitting but in the end decided it would have been the wrong thing to do.

Scottish residents voted by 55 percent to 45 percent on September 18 to remain in the UK rather than becoming a separate state.

"I thought about resigning because I care so passionately about this issue," Cameron said.

Cameron leads the Conservative Party and campaigned for Scotland to stick with the 307-year-old union with England.
