Prime Minister Keir Starmer faces potential mass resignations following the release of documents showing he was aware of Peter Mandelson's extensive links to Jeffrey Epstein when appointing him as UK ambassador to the United States.
The files, disclosed on 11 March 2026, reveal Starmer received a due diligence report in December 2024 highlighting 'general reputational risk' from Mandelson's post-conviction relationship with the paedophile financier. Despite this, Starmer proceeded with the appointment, a decision now fuelling internal Labour Party unrest and calls for his departure.
