Suddenly and without any public knowledge of ill health, at a conference overseas. Believed to be a heart attack.
He was an effective politician in calling for Scottish independence, and his sudden death does in my view end Scottish independence as a major political force.
The resignation of the Scottish PM was considered by many to be a major setback, and this news is ANOTHER major setback, which together with the depletion of North sea oil, and the fragmenting of the independence movement into the SNP and the new Alba, is the end of serious calls for an independent Scotland.
Alex Salmond dead.
