Britain's Defence Secretary Liam Fox speaks on the final day of the Conservative Party Conference in Manchester, northern England in an October 5, 2011 file photo.

A stream of news stories about Fox and his former flat-mate and best man Adam Werritty, who met frequently with Fox and falsely identified himself as his adviser, had eroded Fox's credibility ahead of an inquiry into the affair that was due to be published within days.
