A CRAZED arsonist targeting David Cameron burned down the cottage next door with a Molotov cocktail.David Cameron was 'targeted' by a crazed arsonist but they hurled a Molotov cocktail into the wrong propertyCredit: Paul Edwards - The SunWorkmen were forced to demolish the chocolate box cottage yards away from Mr Cameron's £1.3m homeBut he hurled his firebomb into the wrong property, a chocolate box cottage yards away from Mr Cameron’s home.
The blaze started at 10.30pm on Monday and spread within seconds after the suspect hurled the crude device through a window. A review is being carried out by police into his security as a routine measure following the blaze, although it is understood it is being treated as a one-off incident. “Sadly, the risk is always there because of the vast number of people who have opposed their views while they were in office.“There is no doubt that members of the Royal Family are less vulnerable than former senior politicians like Mr Cameron.
Mr Cameron, who was Prime Minister between 2010 and 2016, and his wife have owned the sprawling home since 2001.But Mrs Cameron once told Harper’s Bazaar: “To be honest, the house is slightly falling down. The windows are rotting, the roof needs replacing, but it’s lovely and it’s where we brought each of our children home from the hospital. It’s our family nest.”
