Removal van outside 10 Downing Street
(Picture: PA)A SOUTH London neighbourhood is alight with talk of famous new residents. Throughout the summer, group chats and forums in Herne Hill had been full of speculation about former PM Boris Johnson and wife Carrie moving in. After putting their Camberwell home on the market the couple have been looking for a place, and now locals tell The Londoner that they have seen their distinctive yellow moving van, last spotted in Downing Street, pulling up in a quiet street and unpacking boxes. Residents have been bracing for the new neighbour. When rumours of a southward move first emerged, journalists swooped on Herne Hill to interrogate the locals. One spoke of being “horrified” by the attention. The excitement should calm when the couple settle in, but it’s unlikely that they will be out of the public eye for long.
