I'm at Ampthill Coroner's Court where people have been arriving for the pre-inquest hearing into the death of Wisbech Conservative activist, Elliott Johnson, whose apparent suicide on railway tracks near Sandy in Bedfordshire led to allegations of Tory party bullying.
One of those arriving is Andre Walker (pictured) who, in a suicide note, Mr Johnson accused of "betraying" him. Mr Walker has denied the allegation.
The coroner has already said the reported comments by Mr Johnson's family that some people should not attend today's hearing were "unacceptable".
