Tony Blair’s new neighbors in Central Londonistan are a bit nervous: Bombproof our windows say Blair’s neighbours.
Tony Blair’s new neighbours have demanded bombproof glass for their houses to protect them from a terrorist attack.
The request comes just days after a series of security scares at his Georgian townhouse in Connaught Square, Central London. One incident involved a suspect car which was investigated by a remote- control ‘robot’ before being cleared.
After discussions with police, residents have had their request refused and have been told they must pay for the alterations themselves.
But it appears the former Prime Minister is considering having bombproof glass and has put in a planning application to Westminster Council to install new windows and doors.
The matter was brought up at a meeting of Connaught Square Residents Association. Neighbours are also worried that bomb damage would not be covered by their home insurance.
