<p>Bethan David, head of the Crown Prosecution Service counter terrorism division, said: “These charges relate to two fires at residential addresses in Islington on Sunday May 11 and in Kentish Town on Monday May 12, as well as a car fire in Kentish Town on Thursday May 8.</p>
<p>“The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against this defendant are now active and that he has the right to a fair trial.”</p>
<p>In the early hours of Monday, the emergency services responded to a fire at the Kentish Town home where Sir Keir Starmer lived before becoming the UK Prime Minister and moving into 10 Downing Street.</p>
<p>Police were alerted by the London Fire Brigade (LFB) to reports of a fire at the residential address at 1.35am.</p>
<p>Damage was caused to the property’s entrance, but nobody was hurt.</p>
<p>A car linked to Sir Keir was set alight in the early hours of Thursday May 8 in the same street.</p>
<p>In the early hours of Sunday, firefighters dealt with a small fire at the front door of a house converted into flats in nearby Islington, which is also linked to the UK prime minister.</p>
<p>One person was assisted to safety via an internal staircase by crews wearing breathing apparatus, LFB said.</p>
