hmmm ... I don't think that Glasto hands out VIP tix to people just because they're a mate of the PM's. So why exactly was this guy getting a VIP pass? I wish someone would say.

Thousands of VIP tickets floating around aren't there? Not hard to get one, you can buy them, you can ask around and get one, you don't need to be I, let alone VI. In fact some of them barely register as Ps

Apparently he's very close personal friends with the family who own the company that supply Glastonbury with their power (Aggrekko or something I think). He was there as a guest of theirs.

Ahhh, yes. Rupert Soames. A name that tells you everything you need to know about these people.

Obviously I have zero time for the man's politics.

But seriously, no one deserves that. What a truly awful way to go. Actually makes me feel really, really sad

I think the Soames brothers are cousins of Bella.

I remember when I worked at West Sussex County Council, Nicholas Soames coming to visit one day and they had to open the side doors for him because he was too fat to fit through the revolving door of county hall.

Glastonbury Festival supremo Michael Eavis described the death as "a suicide situation"

A tory MP found in a VIP portaloo?

Mr Eavis is clearly referring to the festival when mentioning " a suicide situation"

so what if he had a vip ticket, big deal, you will end up a really screwed up person at the inequality of life if you are getting bothered because people get tickets you dont. yeah they will get good tickets to seats at the olympics, in the same way you see celebrities sitting in vip boxes at football matches or concerts every week.  sh*t happens.....

its really not worth worrying about, its a small thing in life....
