Boris and Carrie Johnson have been ridiculed for their taste after an invoice revealed the makeover of their Downing Street home cost more than £200,000 - including a £3,675 drinks trolley and £8,500 lamp.

The couple, who share son Wilfred and daughter Romy, refitted the grace and favour apartment at No.11, which reportedly looked like a 'John Lewis nightmare' after Theresa May's residency, with the help of society interiors guru Lulu Lytle.Lytle is the founder of Soane Britain, a company offering clients wall-to-wall luxe with a promise of bringing 'joie de vivre' into the home - for a hefty price. A single rattan light can cost £7,200, while a desk can be more than £10,000. 

A leaked copy of the invoice for the renovation, seen by the Independent, reveals that the No11 flat makeover included a £7,000 rug, a £3,675 drinks trolley and two sofas which cost more than £15,000 in total.
