Rishi Sunak - impeccably groomed, well dressed and professionally scripted
He's the anti-Trump/BoJo - and Rishi seems cognizant of the fact there are other nations in the world with which the Trump Organization does not do business.
I don’t know about anyone else, but my kitty senses are telling me that PM Rishi Sunak is a well-scripted character in a theatrical production.
A well scripted, well groomed creature of his and his handlers making.
After the 2022 UK’s Thing One and Thing Two, Bozo BoJo and Lettuce Liz, Sunak seems to be the creation of Tory political image consultants, speech writers and current affairs analysts as well as a boat load of handlers.
As polished and relatively well groomed and impeccably dressed as he is, there is something that sets my feline instincts on edge.
Is his outward appearance and demeanour what it seems to be? Cats have a firm founding on homo sapiens. We’ve had to put up with them and their idiosyncrasies and idiocy since the Stone Age.
After what seemed like decades of Donald J Trump and BoJo, Rishi is the complete opposite of what North Americans expect of political leaders.
And his clothing is clean, pressed and it fits.
Someone has suggested that he only wears his clothing once and then it is donated and dropped off at a thrift shop while he on his way to his way to pick out his weekly wardrobe at Savile Row.
Trump and BoJo always looked like they had just woken up from a night spent in a MacDonald’s dumpster.
Larry the No 10 cat was unavailable for today’s column as he is on the campaign trail but assures me he will be available later this week. He sends his regrets but told us to warn our readers not to trust human politicians, and assures us he is doing his best to meet as many of you as possible.
BTW - I would be forever grateful if one of our readers could recommend a good source of broadcast British news. Please - not Sky News - I have spent many years traveling with Nick - my personal human and servant - and it seems to me that the ubiquitous Sky News just delivers a shallow, cursory version of current events.

Now if you don’t mind too terribly - some pleading from a Canuck moggie and Larry the Number 10 Cat.
Cat lovers…
Can I trouble you to buy us some kitty treats. Just $3. One time only. Nick is threatening to hire me out as a hit man rodent killer if I don’t start earning my keep. Bear in mind that Nick had my balls lopped off some time ago and for some reason chasing and murdering innocent rodents holds little appeal to me.
Love a feline - buy a cat some Dreamies!

I really don’t want you to pay for a subscription - but do sign up for a free subscription and maybe donate $3 occasionally for our kitty snack fund when and if you can.
I realize that this winter is and is going to be brutal and leave a lot of people in dire straits - so don’t worry about it if you can’t.
Staying fed, warm and looking after your family is far more important.
