David Lammy, Minister for Higher Education:
“Martin Luther King’s dream was that people would be judged not by the colour of their skin but by the content of their character. Today, Dr King’s dream has come true.
“The election of the first black president is a watershed moment in history, not just for America but also for democracies around the world.
“Millions of people will today feel a sense of hope that with ability and perseverance they can achieve their dreams, and a renewed determination that neither background nor race should be allowed to stand in their way.
“Knowing Barack as the man that he is I believed he could do it, but watching this historic moment unfold in reality is something truly incredible.”
