The Liberal Democrat party has this evening opened a digital book of condolence for Charles Kennedy.

Nick Clegg has written to party members as follows:

The sad news of Charles Kennedy’s death has shocked us all today. Perhaps you met him, worked or campaigned alongside him, or maybe you simply have memories of the great things he said and did. I personally valued his kindness, humour and generosity, and I know that our country will be the poorer without his courage and wisdom.

A book of condolence has been opened online.

If you wish to leave a message, it will be forwarded to Charles’s family, or you can just add your name if you prefer.

The book of condolence is here.
