Liam Fox celebrates his new job

While today’s political climate might not be great for the country, the watering holes of Westminster are certainly doing okay out of the tumult. Mr S hears that Liam Fox was in a celebratory mood on Wednesday night after being appointed Secretary of State for International Trade. Steerpike is informed that the MP stayed close to a table loaded with the House of Commons’ finest fizz. What’s more Mr S hears a whisper his good old pal Adam Werritty was on hand to help Fox celebrate.

At a time when too many politicians are gloom-mongering after Brexit, Mr S is pleased to hear the good doctor has lost no time in his new job: raising morale in his party, toasting the health of the new Prime Minister and telling the world that Britain has plenty to celebrate.
