Those of us who knew the rigmaroles of "Positive Vetting" in the 80/90's are well aware of the ridiculous situation whereby an elected MP - irrespective of his communist leanings - can be appointed by the PM of the day into the Defence Secretary's job. Indeed, the current PM - just because he is elected - has his finger on the nuclear button without sufficient investigation on his political/mental state of affairs...
Here we have a Secretary of State for Defence who is being elusive about the truth of both his personal & "professional" relationship with a man 17 years younger.
If Fox is gay, having a sexual relationship with Weritty, & had admitted it from the outset, the only case to answer is his total lack of judgement (along with the many civil servants around him who would patently know what was going on).
The facts however now point to the conclusion that Fox, through attempting to hide the truth, laid himself open to Blackmail by foreign powers - noticeably Israel. That is absolutely inexcusable of a Defence Secretary. On the face of it, this is exactly what has happened. Would you trust a man who "weaved, ducked" & refused to answer serious questions?
I predict that after "reflecting on his position" over this weekend he will "honourably resign" on Monday - keeping his MP's seat, accrued Cabinet Minister's pension et al. That gives Cameron 2 days to decide on his replacement & the chance for the UK & US to update Israel with all known Intel on Iranian AD sites, for we all know that The US/Saudi's cannot directly attack Iran but Israel would direly like to.....
