The British Prime Minister’s cat nearly stole his job

Il Larry cat has lived for more than 10 years al 10 di Downing Street. In that house he saw David Cameron, Theresa May and Boris Johnson succeed each other.

Now he will have to welcome the new Iron Lady, Liz Truss. How will the coexistence between the two go?

A long career

Larry The Cat is, to date, thelongest lived tenant of Downing Street. And also what manages to be milder among the various political parties!

Having come to success thanks to the conservative party, Larry was also able to get used to the sides of Boris Johnson. The latter, in his farewell speech, also stated:

“I only tell my party that if Dilyn (Johnson’s dog, ndr) and Larry can leave their occasional hardships behind, so can the Conservative Party. ‘

Election candidate

But Liz Truss had a bad time because Larry was also demanding the post of Prime Minister!

With the campaign #YesWeCat (in memory of Yes We Can by Barack Obama in the USA), the advertising agency Don’t Panic had proposed the UK’s most famous cat as the one and only Downing Street tenant to the cry of Larry4Leader (Larry come Leader).

Too bad the campaign was just to laugh a bit about it. We are sure that if he really showed up he would have won! Come on Larry!
