What The Fox?

Why does Boris Johnson feel the need to placate the Right by nominating Liam Fox to become Director-General of the World Trade Organisation?

And in the unlikely event that Fox were to be appointed, then whom would Johnson have lined up for North Somerset?

That is a more pertinent question, since Fox is unlikely to contest another General Election. He is pushing 60, he will never be a Minister again, and he is clearly open to other offers.

For the direction of the Conservative Party over the next generation, this is certainly one to watch.
