"The Prime Minister's future could be further in doubt as Sir Keir Starmer has finally admitted that he "did know" Peter Mandelson's friendship with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein when he appointed the former peer as the UK ambassador to the US. During Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) on Wednesday Starmer twice refused to confess if he knew of the relationship between the convicted paedophile and Mandelson."
""To learn that there was a cabinet minister leaking sensitive information at the height of the response to the 2008 crash is beyond infuriating. "And I am as angry as the public and any member of this House. Mandelson betrayed our country, our Parliament and my party." He added, "Mr Speaker, he [ Mandelson] lied repeatedly to my team when asked about his relationship with Epstein before and during his tenure as ambassador."
Keir Starmer admitted knowing about Peter Mandelson's friendship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein at the time of Mandelson's appointment as UK ambassador to the US. Starmer initially twice refused to state whether he knew of the relationship during Prime Minister's Questions. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch pressed Starmer in the Commons, noting that the information was publicly available online. Starmer condemned Mandelson for leaking sensitive information during the 2008 crash response, accused him of betrayal and lying to Starmer's team, and said he would not have appointed Mandelson had he known then what he knows now.
