Lindsay Hoyle introduces new Westminster cat named after Clement Attlee

Attlee follows in the steps of other parliamentary moggies such as Palmerston, Gladstone and Larry

For the past few months, Westminster has been abuzz with little else other than Boris Johnson and his nine lives. Now, however, he may have a rival in that particular field: Lindsay Hoyle's new cat, Attlee.

The feline will follow in the steps of other parliamentary moggies including the Foreign Office's Palmerston, Treasury's Gladstone and Downing Street's Larry.
