Prime Minister lost his first Conservative cabinet minister Liam Fox Friday when folded under the pressure of relentless revelations of a close friend and access to win the heart of government.
Make a reorganizationreluctant, David Cameron has made minimal movement on the bench outside his home in the district of Oxfordshire, replacing Fox on the phone with Secretary of Transportation, Philip Hammond, who in turn, was succeeded by Justine Greening.
No. 10, Fox said he had collapsed under the weight of news this week and could not bear to consider another weekend of claims surrounding his friendship with his best man, Adam Werritty.

Werritty said the evidence was not impressed and O'Donnell was Secretary to the Cabinet concluded Fox had repeatedly broken the ministerial code.
Downing Street insisted that Fox did not push the prime minister was willing to put up with incessant coverage and wait for the report to conclude O'Donnell. However, senior figures began to wonder if I could survive this long with new allegations that emerged Friday. They showed that some of the businessmen who financed the trips abroad Werritty interested in influencing public policy advocacy. The Guardian was about to report that two donors had Werritty defense interests.
This calls into question the repeated assertion that neither he nor Fox Werritty had received 40 cases who had gathered in the last 16 months.
Fox insisted until Friday morning that would emerge from the crisis lasts, saying he believed that the research assistants O'Donnell exonerated of serious offenses. He thought also that his apology on Monday to take the sting of criticism of O'Donnell.
But that quickly changed when the news began to spread around Whitehall that the investigation would be difficult to draw some conclusions: both on the personal conduct of Fox and the mosaic of agreements commercial attended Werritty
"I do not think that the resignation was a fact until the early afternoon," said one Whitehall official. However, the background music of the Cabinet Office was that the research would be very damaging. Liam did not leave many choices. He had no chance to say goodbye too. He was in his car on the way home at the time the statement was released. "
Fox will now join the bench, where he enjoys a certain popularity, but he was injured last week that the chances of being a champion of the right agitation has diminished.
receive as much sympathy for the crash of a high-level working had spent his professional life, many Conservatives believe that the revelations have damaged irreparably Policy weeks.
- Shadow Defence Secretary, Jim Murphy, said that Fox had his "sincere condolences", although the reaction was also criticized the work of Cameron Fox to survive the week.
- A Downing Street source admitted that there had been some ambiguity as to whether the report should be completed today, but O'Donnell is likely to continue their work.
said ... "By mistake makes the distinction between my personal interests and my activities of the government to diminish the consequences have become clearer in the last days I am very sorry for what
"I also said repeatedly that the national interest must be provided before personal interests. Now I have to keep my own standard."
