The incident of a young Ukrainian man torching the British prime minister’s car and property makes a good story, but leaves more questions than answers. Roman Lavrynovych, 21, is reported to have been arrested and charged for acts of arson against property of Sir Keir Starmer, but despite the case being reported in great detail – the events themselves – very little has been revealed by the British press. Most outlets have reported it, almost verbatim from each other, but the bigger story has eluded them. And most of them probably know it. Is there a story there about the link between this young man and the British prime minister?
Unsubstantiated, salacious claims on social media are suggesting that the young Ukrainian man was in a relationship with the PM, with some going as far to suggest that he was offering sexual services to Starmer. They claim that The Sun tabloid newspaper has text messages between the two men.
The plot thickens and perhaps adds weight to this possibility when it is later revealed that Lavrynovych had an accomplice, in the form of a lady boy male model Stanislav Carpiuc, who was arrested and charged later on, after police found evidence of his role on Lavrynovych’s phone.
For older journalists of a certain generation, it will remind them of a scandal in the early 60s, whereby an important minister in the cabinet of Edward MacMillan was caught having an affair with a cabaret girl more than half his age, who, it just so happened, was also having a tryst with a Soviet spy in London. The Christine Keeler affair rocked the nation in 1963 when Jack Profumo, minister of war, finally had to admit that he earlier lied to parliament about his affair with Keeler whose boyfriends came from all walks of life who she met at a London club where she worked as a dancer. One, a black jazz promoter who, angry at being jilted, fired a revolver at the front door of her London flat – a dwelling in a quiet muse which was owned by a society doctor who had, in many ways, adopted her and became her mentor. The shooting incident was the last straw for the Macmillan government and sparked a serious of events which finally led to the downfall of the conservatives the following year in 1964. It’s important to note that it was media which played a huge role in the scandal.
If it is true that The Sun newspaper has digital evidence about the relationship of Starmer and the young Romanian men, then it could also mean the downfall of the Labour leader. Or rather, it would be if Britain’s venal press pack were operating as they were in the 1960s.
In reality, even if The Sun holds such salacious evidence, it is unlikely that it will used to expose Starmer. In reality, it would be held as an ace to garner more leverage in terms of access to the PM and confidential government documents.
Of course, there are other scenarios which might explain the incidents of torching the PMs former family car and property. Could it be that this young man was commissioned to do this by the Ukrainian secret services who would hope that the British press would point the finger at Moscow? Could it also be that this young man believes, like many Ukrainians, that their days remaining as refugees in the UK are numbered? It would be fair to say that it is likely that if Starmer ever went ahead with a military plan in the Ukraine, that he might have to force young men in the UK to join the army to be sent there. This might include Ukrainians residing in the country as refugees.
The one highly suspicious point about this case is the young man’s silence. It is as though he is too terrified to speak, knowing that his fate might be his demise. Does he fear for his life, now in police custody? The theory about him being a ‘rent boy’ for the British PM, in this prism, can be viewed as a credible one but it is unlikely we will ever know, given that the UK press now is so servile to the deep state and so we can assume are protecting Starmer. If the truth ever does come out, we can be sure that it won’t be via the mainstream press but rather leaked to alternative media. The period of the 1960s which exposed Profumo and his lies had a strong anti-establishment press which exposed the truth, via old fashioned journalism – middle-aged men meeting witnesses in pubs and hunting down disgruntled former colleagues or lovers – time-consuming work which eventually turns over the stones to reveal the nuggets of truth underneath a story which has gripped a nation. Today’s Britain has an entirely different media which serves the very establishment which it brought down in 1964, so don’t hold your breath for the press to shed light on this story Romanian pretty boy story, which you can bet your grandmother’s savings involved blackmail at some point.
