Larry the Cat, the famous Chief Mouser of Downing Street, is back in the spotlight after a playful social media post suggested he had "accepted" Prime Minister Keir Starmer's resignation as his chief servant. The post drew attention online and added to Larry's long-running popularity in British politics. The cat has lived at 10 Downing Street since 2011 and has remained in place through six different prime ministers. Over the years, Larry has become one of the most recognisable residents of Downing Street. While political leaders have come and gone, the well-known feline has continued his role, earning a loyal following both in Britain and abroad. (PC: X)
