Arson convictions in a Starmer case stoke UK security debate; Kentish Town sits at the heart of history, politics and culture in north London.
Two men linked to Ukraine and Romania have been convicted at London's Old Bailey of conspiring to commit arson and damaging property tied to Prime Minister Keir Starmer. A Russian-speaking Telegram handler, named El Money, directed the attacks to sow fear and disrupt UK politics. Sentencing is set for Friday as authorities stress the incident’s broader implications for security and foreign interference.
