18:51 GMT 04.09.2022 (Updated: 15:20 GMT 28.05.2023) Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak may be running neck-and-neck in the Tory leadership race, but the Brits seemingly favor a third candidate, who has been residing in Number 10 for over a decade.
Social media users were flabbergasted to see "Larry for leader" billboards pop up across London, announcing the Downing Street cat's "last-minute bid" for prime minister.
