BREAKING NEWS: Someone in Westminster does their job.
NEW Larry the Cat has just killed and eaten a mouse feet from the door of 10 Downing St during the Prime Ministerβs press conference.
The mouse was killed in the courtyard of the Foreign Office, dragged across the street and consumed by Larry on the grass next to Number 10βs door. We have the film.
This is not an April Fool. It is the first time this has happened in my long hours standing outside 10 Downing Street. Here is Larry moments before the mouse killing.

Well, when a child is conceived, the DNA split is 50/50 from both parents. Except for one small detail: mitochondrial DNA. Itβs passed down only through the mother and never through sperm.
Which means something interesting: all living humans can trace their mitochondrial line back to one woman, not one man.
And every daughter born continues passing that same line forward.
Happy Womenβs Day π

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage.
I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.
Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you...

I like to start the day in a healthy way, so I have fruit and yoghurt for breakfast.
Unless Iβm staying in a Premier Inn where I have a Full English, croissant, crumpets with butter and a bowl of Coco Pops.
