Absolutely horrible news. Tony was an absolutely tremendous bloke and you would be hard pressed to find anyone who could say a bad word about him.

I only saw him a few weeks ago and he was seemingly in good health.

Dreadful news for his friends and family, but surely also some of the worst luck a political party could have. UKIP have now lost both of their county councillors in the space of little more than a month, with one being one of their best campaigners and the other causing them some reputation damage. Hard not to feel sorry for them.
