Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says police made a “mistake” after an investigation into a reported firebomb attack at his London home is reopened. The matter is being reassessed alongside a broader police probe that also involves the killing of Ann Widdecombe, according to reporting cited by multiple outlets.
The articles say officers investigating Widdecombe’s death also now look at an April 2025 incident connected to Farage’s house. Farage publicly criticizes the police response, characterising aspects of the handling as erroneous, while the reopened review indicates the police investigation is being expanded or revisited. The outlets do not present competing details about what happened, but they frame Farage’s reaction differently: one highlights his “slam” at police, while the other repeats the reopened-official-investigation context.
Overall, both accounts describe the same sequence—reopening of the case and police interest in the April 2025 incident at Farage’s property—while focusing on Farage’s criticism of how the police have handled the matter.
