Fire at Starmer's house

Mups · May 13, 2025, 12:30:58 PM

You probably heard about the fire started which damaged the front door of Kier Starmer's private residence where he lived before moving into Downing Street.

Anyway, Police have now arrested a 21 yr old male for this, plus they are also linking him to another property fire and a car fire too. It didn't say his nationality.

A next door neighbour said the police searched their garden too, looking for 'missiles' that could have been thrown to start the fires.

Perhaps if these young people had a job, and were at work all day, they wouldn't be out causing trouble!

Surprisomg considering how popular he is with young people. They all join in with a song dedicated to him.

Awww!!! What a shame.. Do you think someone doesn't like him.. !!!!
I hope it is not a British guy with the name of SMITH... BROWN.. or. JONES..
Then he will know that there are others (over here) that are not too keen on him..

Love the chant dedicated to him..

I do realise that TwoTier is a little thick, but surely by now his little brain must be beginning to consider whether he is not as popular among the British people as he once believed.

As for the nationality of the chap who did the deed, my uneducated guess is that he might be white British.

Can't stand him, but don't think his family deserve that sort of act at their home.

agree

Never an excuse for any violence towards any politician. Arson especially can have a lot of collateral damage. I do find it hard to have any sympathy with him though.

I too think the man arrested will be white British... unfortunately..
I would have preferred it to be another .. Then Starmer might clock on that that he is not too popular with others...
He probably thinks the person got the wrong address..

They'll blame this on Russia

They want him alive. He is buggering up the country far more than they could ever hope to achieve.

Roman Lavrynovych, a Ukrainian national, was charged with three counts of arson with intent to endanger life on Thursday.

So pleased it was not a white British...
Ukrainian !!! That's a surprise.. Seeing as we keep giving them money.. One would expect them to be big fans of Starmer..

This smells more of Russia than Ukraine to me as Starmer is very pro Ukraine. Along with Macron and Merz the new German chancellor he is heading up a whole bunch of European countries supporting Ukraine under the banner Coalition of the Willing.

Ukraine themselves have arrested many Ukrainian nationals under the control of the FSB (old USSR KGB). There are some Ukrainians that do support Russia and as with all countries some prepared to betray it for personal gain or to protect relatives held by Russia.

Well about a third of Ukrainian citizens are actually Russian, and I suspect that the Russian Ukrainians want Russia to defend their areas (mainly the south and east of Ukraine including the Crimea). On the other hand the western Ukranians obviously don't like being press ganged into fighting a superior enemy and want peace much more than the politicians do.

Bear in mind that Ukraine was part of Russia until the revolution in 1917, and it joined the USSR a couple of years after that. Somehow the Russians and western Ukrainians got along together for nearly 100 years.
