You Ask Us: How is a foreign secretary’s success judged?

Listeners react to David Cameron’s return to cabinet.

Anoosh Chakelian is joined in the studio by the New Statesman’s associate political editor Rachel Cunliffe and the political correspondent Freddie Hayward to answer listeners’ questions surrounding David Cameron’s appointment as Foreign Secretary.

One listener asks: “At the Home Office you have immigration figures, as health secretary there are NHS waiting lists. Is David Cameron likely to improve his reputation because it’s harder to fail as foreign secretary?”
