British Prime Minister David Cameron has paid tribute to the politician who was found dead at the legendary Glastonbury music festival on Sunday (26Jun11), calling the aide a “great friend”.<\/span><\/p>\n

The body of 56-year-old Christopher Shale, a local Conservative Party chairman, was discovered in a portable toilet in the festival\u2019s backstage Vip area on Sunday morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Police cordoned off the area behind the famed Pyramid stage, as well as a camping site where many production teams and artists were staying, as they investigated the death.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It subsequently emerged that Shale was a close friend of Cameron and the U.K. leader has now spoken out about his death.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He says in a statement, “He was a great friend and has been a huge support over the last decade… A big rock in my life has suddenly been rolled away. Christopher was one of the most truly generous people I’ve ever met. He was always giving to others, his time, his help, his enthusiasm and above all his love of life. It was in that spirit that he made a massive contribution to the Conservative Party both locally and nationally.”<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A spokesman for Avon and Somerset Police has confirmed they are not treating Shale’s death as suspicious, but will be conducting further tests to find out how he died.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
