What are the questions for Liam Fox?

Patrick Hennessy suggests that one is has Adam Werritty "ever had access to any classified MoD information?" Okay, reasonable question, but we haven't any reason to suppose that he might have. What we do know that is Werritty has been claiming to be an advisor to Liam Fox and using the House of Commons portcullis on his business cards. This is not, of itself, something that Liam Fox has done wrong. It is something that Adam Werritty has done wrong. Which bring us to former Senator Howard Baker.

Baker's question during the Watergate hearings was "what did the President know and when did he know it?" This is the question that Fox needs to answer. Did he know that Werritty was promoting his business as a lobbyist for the defence industry by claiming to be an advisor to the Defence Secretary?
