I have not seen any mention in the media of Hague's referral to Adam Werritty during his interview on Andrew Marr's television programme this morning, an interview that can be seen here (Hague appears at 37:30).
In response to Marr's question whether he had met Adam Werritty Hague replied that he had not met him in his position as Foreign Secretary whilst in government - but did admit to having met him 'in passing' whilst he was Shadow Foreign Secretary. Any interviewer worth his salt would surely have seized on that statement and questioned Hague further. What does 'in passing' mean? When, where and in what scenario(s)? Did he question Fox at that time as to who Werritty was and why he was present? Knowing that Fox knew Werritty, on his appointment as Foreign Secretary and Fox's appointment as Defence Secretary, did Hague question Fox whether the relationship was on-going? Did Hague know that Werritty had accompanied Fox on trips abroad? Was Hague aware of the number of visits Werritty paid Fox at the Ministry of Defence?
Well, Mr. Hague?
