Starmer facing calls to dismiss Lord Mandelson

Six O'Clock News

Available for over a year

Sir Keir Starmer is facing calls to dismiss Lord Mandelson, after the UK's ambassador to the United States admitted that revelations about his links to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were 'very embarrassing'. In an interview with The Sun newspaper, Lord Mandelson said a birthday note he wrote to Epstein in 2003 may not be the last of their messages to emerge - describing the association as being 'an albatross around his neck'. The Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, has questioned how much the Prime Minister knew about his ambassador's ties to Epstein.
