"Christopher Shale, a senior Conservative who was discovered dead in a toilet at Glastonbury on Sunday morning may have died in the early afternoon of the previous day, according to a family friend who said he was briefed by medical staff.
The body of Shale, 56, a close political ally of David Cameron, was discovered on Sunday morning hours after he was quoted in a Conservative strategy document leaked to a Sunday newspaper, as saying the Tories had come across over the years as "graceless, voracious, crass, always on the take" and needed to radically change."
http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2011/jun/26/tory-christopher-shale-dead-glastonburyI wasn't going to post this, but then I saw it on the DU front page with a lot of rather crass comments about it being suicide or "a hit". Since there hasn't been an autopsy yet, and the rozzers are not talking about suicide, it does seem a bit much to be flinging language like this around.
