    My condolences to the Camerons, something you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy.

    RIP to the poor soul

    How sad thoughts with their Family, and every other Family in the World not so famous going through exactly the same bereavement

    Re: David Cameron's son died earlier today...

    Good point - if they had to suspend PM's Questions everytime a kid died of some disease which could surely be helped by additional funding, MPs would soon start taking note.

    Although Brown is probably happy for any excuse to cancel PMQ these days. Is that pushing the line a little? Sorry.

    I think it was rather the fact that Cameron would not have been in a fit state to participate in PMQs, rather than specifically in tribute to the child.

    I know there is always a feeling when celebrities or politicians end up in the news because of a death or cancer (Kylie, Jade Goody etc) that people should remember that "ordinary" people suffer too, but it is just the nature of the celeb. obsessed world we are in, and often celebs can help publicise the cause. It just seems a bit of a redundant point to highlight this.

    A bit of both, but probably a bit of PR on Gordon's part - after all, he needs all the help he can get.

    In any case, very sad.
