Such cynicism from one so young think

Here is a video. There weren't any flames visible. Just smoke. This was about 10 minutes after the fire service arrived.

It looked like the fire was mostly in the lounge.

Here are some pics

As you can see from the pictures there is very little damage on the outside of the pub but there is smoke damage inside. It's a bit of a coincidence that the North Star opens, then he Comet closes and catches fire. The Police video van was there at midnight and is still there. Looks like the Police don't think it's a coincidence.

That camera is one of the older fixed ones, possibly to monitor the traffic. The other one further down opposite the small church is a newer dome type which can be rotated and zoomed.
The police should be recording everything 24/7 round that area.

Looks like a pan & tilt mounted just beneath the camera. Don't think it would be popular around there!

There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025
