I AM very worried about Larry the Downing Street cat.

He has had to put up with a lot since Boris Johnson became Prime Minister. First, a dog was brought into Number 10, usurping his status as number one animal.

Now a baby is on the way to become the new centre of attention. Poor Larry is being shunted well down the pecking order.

As Chief Mouser he is still important. I just hope someone remembers to give him a stroke and a cuddle every day.
