A 21-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life following a fire at a property linked to British Prime Minister Keir Starmer , local media reported. The fire occurred early on Monday at Starmer’s former family home in Kentish Town , north London, which he still owns. Starmer moved into the official Prime Minister’s residence in Downing Street after Labour’s election victory last year.

Starmer’s spokesperson expressed gratitude to the emergency services for their response, adding that the incident is still under investigation and no further comments would be made.
