Former Foreign Secretary Robin Cook has died in hospital after collapsing while hillwalking in Scotland.

Mr Cook, 59, was with his second wife Gaynor on Ben Stack in Sutherland when he took ill at 2.23pm, Northern Constabulary said.

The Livingston MP, who lived in Edinburgh, was near the summit of the 2,365ft mountain.

He was airlifted by a Coastguard helicopter to Raigmore Hospital in Inverness, where he died.

Mr Cook was a keen hill-walker, and regularly spends his summer holidays with close family and friends enjoying the dramatic mountain scenery of Highland Scotland, rather than going abroad.

That's pretty shocking news, he seemed pretty young

It happens. I mean I didn't like the guy at all politically. But i guess he was ok as an individual, shame to die at such an age. But to be quite honest, I would rather drop down dead than have cancer for 6 months and waking up everyday waiting to die.

Yeah, perhaps not politically that great, but he was certainly someone well known.

I mean he didnt agree with the war. But he didn't blame Blair which I respect him for. He admired him for trying to get the second referendum

I was shocked when I say that on the BBC site. RIP

Aww, very sad news indeed. He was a true Labour man, not one of these Blairite reformists.

He will be missed.

This is very sad news indeed. Lets hope he gets a decent send off.

Yes, he was rubbish on it. Worst Guest Presenter.

Still that's no reason to hate him. RIP
