 Guardian Unlimited | Obituaries | Robin Cook
Cook was one of the very few contemporary politicians whose national reputation was built principally within the chamber of the House of Commons.
But he adapted with elan to the relatively mundane post of leader of the house, and it is by no means the least of his epitaphs that he remains the only serious politician who has tried to replace the corrupting system of patronage which underpins the House of Lords with a democratic chamber.
It is a measure of Cook's competence and prestige, both as a national politician and in his constituency, that he continued to operate effectively and maintain political and public support, in the face of intense and continuing media interest.

 OBSERVATIONS ON POLITICIANS
"Politicians are politicians all of the time -- whether they're helping themselves to an extra-serving of farm-subsidy bacon, writing new laws about when their opponents can and can't run ads about them or appointing bureaucrats to enforce those laws.
