The former prime minister cannot return to his Camden house after two men were locked up over a reportedly Russian-linked plot to firebomb it. His biographer Tom Baldwin told Sky News that Starmer recently took a holiday and wants to avoid interfering with new PM Andy Burnham. He is also expected to stay quiet about Chancellor John Healey ditching a pledge to boost defence spending.
