BREAKING: Susan Tsvangirai Dies Following Car Crash

Just a day or so ago Iain Dale was questioning Tom Harris MP's timing in discussing South Asian politics - just ahead of the attack on Sri Lanka cricketers and match officials in Pakistan. But yesterday he himself ridiculously lost an argument before it had started by calling in the Mugabe brand in relation to UK economics. Now it is his turn for "bad timing".

Susan Tsvangirai has now died, though the BBC page has not been updated at the time of writing, according to agency reports. Morgan Tsvangirai is in hospital but is not thought to be in immediate danger.
