This Tuesday marked the sad passing of former party leader, Charles Kennedy. Charles remained highly respected and admired throughout his 32 years as an MP.

To mark the impact that he had on many lives, as well as a long and successful career in the Lib Dems, party HQ have opened a book of condolence on the party website.
