Man arrested over arson attacks after fire at Sir Keir Starmer's house

Police arrested a 21-year-old man on Tuesday for suspected arson after fires damaged two properties linked to Keir Starmer's private house in north London.
The arrest followed an early-morning fire on Monday that damaged the door of Starmer's former home and two other fires nearby, including a vehicle fire and a door fire on May 8, which may be connected.
Since assuming office in July, Starmer has moved out of his personal residence and now lives with his family at the official Downing Street home; counterterrorism police are leading the investigation due to the property's past association with him.
Conservative politician Kemi Badenoch condemned the incidents as "shocking" and called them "an attack on our democracy" that must never be tolerated, while police searched for a projectile near the property.
No injuries occurred in any of the fires, but the events highlight security concerns for public figures’ homes, prompting police and fire services to investigate the possible links among the blazes.
