Death of Lord Russell-Johnston

28/07/2008

First Minister Alex Salmond said:

"Lord Russell-Johnston was an intelligent and articulate advocate of his cause. Pro-European and a committed home ruler, he lent grace, wit and style to Scottish politics for more than a generation.

"I knew him as a Parliamentary colleague in the Commons. He will be missed across the political spectrum."
