Police are not treating his death as suspicious and a source told MailOnline he may have collapsed and died after a night of drinking but there is no evidence to suggest it was suicide.


daily mail so usual caveats

how much do you have to drink to get to the it will kill you stage? bottle of whiskey each night?


My next door neighbour drank himself to death. Could not cope with being made redundant at age 60

Drank at least one bottle of whisky every day for 6 months

He had a doner card but they couldn't use any of his internal organs because they were all ruined

heart, liver, kidneys, lungs, stomach, all destroyed

An honourable, decent, kind and humane man - as well as having a great sense of humour.

How many politicians bear witness to those qualities?

A great pity he's gone.

Until cause of death is confirmed, best to have some respect , and keep speculations to yourself imo.

Surprised the CCDA not got Nicola Sturgeon in the frame for this one.

She and her party stole his parliamentary seat and he then drank himself to death with nothing to live for.

His death wasn't suicide which will come as a disappointment to the ghouls and muck rakers.

In that case, half the population is committing suicide by eating themselves to death.

All the affectionate drinking stories reported this week, as is normal when someone passes away.
Things like 'taxi' being his nick-name.
Or getting a train to Newcastle and getting off at Peterborough
Or the legend that he went to bed at the same hour as Thatcher and Ashdown were getting up, somewhere around 5am.

My guess is that if these were the fond stories, there must have been some brutal ones too.

'Hounded' by SNP hate mob: How, in the weeks before his lonely death, Charles Kennedy endured a vile campaign of bullying and abuse by separatist fanatics that deeply wounded an already vulnerable man
Kennedy was the victim of extensive personal attacks from SNP loyalist
Waged on cyberspace and on the streets of his Highland constituency
On social networking sites, trolls called him a traitor and a drunkard

If he was anything remotely similar to me, he might have stumbled over whilst pished and cracked his nut a stotter upon hitting the deck?

Whatever, RIP Charlie - you were a good un.

I wonder how many politicians read replies to their tweets? Regardless of their political persuasion most just seem to get wholesale abuse hurled at them on a very regular basis.

September 2004 - The Sun frontpage

The Sun pictures Mr Kennedy next to a snake with the headline:
"Spot the difference: one is a spineless reptile that spits venom... the other's a poisonous snake."
