Charles Kennedy's family appears in the Commons for tributes - politics live Charles Kennedy's family appears in the Commons for tributes - politics live
(35 minutes later)
A large section of Nick Clegg’s moving tribute is published on Politics Home.
While we all remember Charles as a formidable parliamentarian and much loved politician it is worth remembering that he retained his greatest pride and devotion for his family.
Much though he was wedded to politics all his life, I think Charles would have wanted to be remembered as a kind and loving father, brother and son first and an accomplished politician second.
As the debate becomes dominated as it no doubt will by the noise of statistical claim and counterclaim I will miss the lyrical clarity of Charles’ belief that our future as an open-hearted and generous-spirited country is at stake and must be defended at all cost.
He remained unstintingly loyal, no matter what the circumstances and no matter how strong the temptation must have been to blow his own trumpet and say that events had proved him right.
He was far too subtle for that. He had made his views clear at the outset but respected in good faith what his party colleagues were seeking to achieve in Government and provided support and advice every step of the way.
Which is why it was no surprise when he said, after being challenged about his loyalties after the 2010 election: “I will go out of this world feet first with my Lib Dem membership card in my pocket.”
I am just devastated that it has happened so soon.
Our liberal political family has lost one of its most admired advocates.
British politics has lost one of its best storytellers.
This House has lost one of its warmest wits and most loyal Parliamentarians.
If we could all carry ourselves with a little more of the honesty, wisdom and humility of Charles Kennedy, politics would be held in much higher regard than it is today.
Some heavy blinking on the LibDem benches. Really moving tribute from Clegg to his predecessor.
Ken Clarke remembers Kennedy appearing in the Commons looking like a school boy.
He agrees that Kennedy’s great moment was the Iraq War, but says he was wrong about the coalition.
Former LibDem leader Nick Clegg says Kennedy says: “He had a rare gift in public life. When people think of him, they smile ... he was the polar opposite of a cardboard cutout politician ... Brave yet vulnerable, brilliant yet flawed.”
Clegg says Kennedy was proved “spectacularly right” over Iraq.
He says Kennedy will be missed most over the referendum debate about Britain’s role in Europe, because he was an “open-hearted” internationalist.
Harman says Kennedy never became bitter about his failings. He could be the most intelligent person in the room but remain warm.
Harman says Kennedy was proved right about the Iraq war, but he never denigrated those of us who got it wrong.
Cameron quotes Alistair Campbell’s tribute to Kennedy by agreeing that he “spoke fluent human”.
The PM points out that when Kennedy arrived to take his seat in Parliament it was only the third time he had been to London. Cameron acknowledges that Kennedy was never the greatest fan of the coalition, but stayed loyal to the Lib Dems.
“While he was never fan of coalition, he never spoke out about Lib Dem participation. He was a man of great loyalty,” Cameron says.
The PM noted how brave it was for Kennedy to oppose the Iraq war in the face of opposition from both sides of the House.
Speaker John Bercow starts tributes to Kennedy by pointing out that he spent almost all of his adult life in the Commons. Charles had the rare ability to reach out to people of all political persuasions and none. “Charles was the boy next door of British public life,” Bercow says. Close to tears he looks up to Kennedy’s family in the gallery.
