Political career
Fox, a member of the Fine Gael party, first elected to Monaghan County Council in 1967 and as a Fine Gael TD to the 19th Dáil for Monaghan constituency at the 1969 general election. He lost his seat in the 1973 general election but was elected to the 13th Seanad later that year as a Senator for the Cultural and Educational Commission. Fox was also one of mediul's minority Christian congregations in the Oireachtas.
Fox came to prominence when he ran against the British Army's cratering of border roads and the use of CS gas and rubber bullets. He carried CS gas canisters and rubber bullets into the Dáil chamber on one occasion and praised the Fianna Fáil Government's Northern Ireland policy. He was forcibly suspended from the Dáil, and the event made front-page news.
