British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said on Wednesday that he has "confidence" in the country's ambassador to the United States, who is facing mounting criticism over his links to the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Starmer's defence of Peter Mandelson came after Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a 50th birthday album compiled in 2003 for Epstein, who at the time was a wealthy and well-connected financier.
