Its pretty inconceivable the press wouldn't have known where the pm was based ie at Alli’s flat, so the argument he was protecting his family is a bit weak. More likely he wanted somewhere more convenient to run his campaign, but he could have done that by staying home alone. He should introduce legislation to regulate the press camping outside politicians houses for days weeks or even months. Its a form of stalking. And then stick a rocket up ofcom for not regulating the tv media properly.

But the press camped outside his home would have been sufficient distraction for someone studying.
And the press would not be camped outside Starmer's home to catch a glimpse of his son.

You may have noticed there is far more concern about MP security these days. You don't think the same applies to the PM with bells on? All it takes is one nutcase,

Starmmer is well protected as leader of the opposition and then PM. The press are more of a nuisance because they build up a dossier on the private lives of public figures and their families to be used in anger if or when necessary.
