GLASTONBURY, England -- Prime minister David Cameron was mourning Sunday the loss of a "great friend" after a key political aide to the British leader was found dead in a toilet in the VIP area at the UK's legendary Glastonbury music festival.
Christopher Shale, a local Conservative Party chairman who helped run Cameron's regional office in Oxfordshire, central England, was discovered by cops in the huge site's central backstage area shortly after 9:00am local time, police said.
The prime minister said he and wife Samantha Cameron were "devastated" at the news.
The cause of Shale's death remained unknown amid reports he died of a heart attack. A distraught woman was seen being comforted by police as officers established a cordon around the backstage shower and toilet area.

Also, this comment was a little obscure to me:
"A big rock in my life has suddenly been rolled away," David Cameron said.
Interesting choice of words.
