 The Met Police said that despite widespread community fears, the incident is not being treated as a hate crime. 

Harwood and Kaory are due to appear at Willesden Magistrates Court on Thursday.

Speaking to the JC after the attack, Freer said he was “always worried if I'm going to come home each night”.

The MP, who wears stab vests at public events after previous threats, said he had recieved on an email following the fire that said he was “the kind of person who deserved to be set alight”.

He added: “I think obviously because I have such strong views on the Middle East, and I’m pro-Israel, this has led me to become a target.”
