The Tory MP and his family are away on holiday in New York and have become the victims of vandalism to their property.
The culprits spray-painted abuse ‘posh scum’, ‘shut up and die’ and ‘****head’ across his windows and garage of his home in West Harptree, Somerset.
They also stuck a purple dildo on his wife’s Land Rover. Continuing the sexual theme they also threw condoms onto the lawn that leads up to his family home.
His maid discovered the dildo and graffiti the next morning.
A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset Police said: ‘We’re investigating a report of criminal damage at a property in West Harptree. ‘The incident happened sometime between 4pm on Wednesday, 1 August and 8am on Thursday 2 August. ‘Graffiti was sprayed on a building and a car, while damage was also caused to the garden. ‘House to house enquiries have been carried out while crime scene investigators have attended. Enquiries are ongoing.’
Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
