Claws out, it’s all kicking off in Downing Street. After a month of drastic change and bubbling tensions among Westminster’s big beasts, things have started to turn violent. However, rather than May vs Osborne, it’s the government’s two top cats who can’t seem to keep a lid on it.
When David Cameron moved out of No.10, he left Larry the cat behind –insisting that he still loved him. In the MP for Witney’s absence, Downing Street’s resident mouser has struggled to cope. While little is yet known of his relationship with the new Prime Minister it’s Palmerston — the Foreign Office cat — who appears to be the cause of friction.
