    R.I.P Robbin.

    I didnt know he was ill, the stress of been a polotition, not that he was a well sort after one.. Assasination, i think so.

    Former Foreign Secretary Robin Cook, who quit government over the Iraq war, died on Saturday after collapsing on a Scottish mountainside. He was 59.

    Its a shame that he didn't have a massive go at blair before he left.

    Yeah, t'is a shame. I must admit though, I used to find him humourous when he was in parliament, mainly due to him having some food or drink down his tie at any given moment

    Nice guy though from what people have said, and his condemnation of the Iraq War is commendable I think we can all agree.

    Agreed, a shame as he stood up for what he thought was right in the face of his peers.
    Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
    Enwrought with golden and silver light,
    The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
    Of night and light and the half-light,
    I would spread the cloths under your feet:
    But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
    I have spread my dreams under your feet;
    Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams.
