Number 10

The seat of power.

Today’s Prime Ministers invariably prefer Number 11, next door – traditionally the home of the Chancellor of the Exchequer (UK Treasury Secretary). It’s considerably more spacious. Number 10 is the place if you want to swig an illicit bottle or two of booze while the rest of the nation is in lockdown. It has a larger garden for you and your scofflaw friends.

Anyway, good luck getting anywhere this close today. That would result in confiscation of your camera and a stretch in the slammer. Snapped in August, 1975:
