Subject: Charles Kennedy, former Liberal Democrat leader, dies aged 55

Written By: Philip Eno on 06/02/15 at 3:36 am

Former Liberal Democrat Party leader Charles Kennedy has died at his home in Fort William aged 55.

His family said they were devastated to lose a "fine man and loving father". No cause of death has been given but police said it was not suspicious.

Mr Kennedy, who led his party from 1999 to 2006, lost his seat last month.

Politicians including Nick Clegg and Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon have been paying tribute, calling him "one of the most talented politicians".

And Prime Minister David Cameron said he was "deeply saddened" by the news.
