I'm assuming we are talking about Henry Channon, he went into politics and he was associated with the appeasement wing of the Conservative party. Why did he want appeeasement, well here is what the ODNB said: "Always ferociously anti-communist, he was an early dupe of the Nazis because his attractive German princelings hoped that Hitler might be preparing for a Hohenzollern restoration." Hohenzollern was a house of former princes, kings and emperors. I am assuming that he thought that with his politics of appeasement he could achieve that.
