Mr Johnson’s Chancellor and Health Secretary both announced shock resignations this evening, dealing body blows to the Prime Minister following the fallout of the Chris Pincher scandal.

After the series of resignations rocked Westminster, a parody Twitter account of the No.10 pet went viral as Larry put his paw down with his own statement.

“I can no longer, in good conscience, live with this Prime Minister” said the tweet.

“Either he goes, or I do.”

The tweet, which has racked up over 88,000 likes and 17,000 retweets, was met with a stream of hilarious reactions.

“Stay Larry, you can be the people’s Prime Minister” said one supporter.

Another responded: “You can’t go Larry, you’re the only one in number 10 that the people trust!”
