PRIME Minister Rishi Sunak’s puppy got a poppy yesterday.
The new PM and his wife Akshata Murty took the family’s 17-month-old fox red labrador retriever Nova when they donated to Royal British Legion collectors in Downing Street.
Mr Sunak appeared to struggle putting some bank notes in a collecting tin held by Imogen Nicol, 11, from Wokingham, Berks, to buy poppies for him and Akshata.
He also bought an RBL dog collar, with a reflective poppy, from 11-year-old collector Maisie Mead for Nova.
Mr Sunak urged everyone to support the annual poppy appeal.
