Robin Cook Died

He actually died yesterday but I forgot to post then.

He was a great Labour politician who rose up to become Foreign Secretary and after that leader of the House of Commons.

He stuck to his principles and when the UK went to war with Iraq he resigned as a cabinenet Minister.

When in opporsition he was a great opponenet and really gave hard hitting questions, he was known to be a man who did his research.

He died at the relativly young age of 59 after having a heart attack when walking in Scotland.

He is a great loss to the Labour party and the UK.

sad
