Keir Starmer was warned about Mandelson’s links to Epstein, new documents reveal | ABC NEWS
New documents show British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer had been warned about Peter Mandelson’s links to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein before he appointed him ambassador to the US.
Lord Mandelson was forced to quit his role last year after it emerged he maintained a friendship with Epstein after the paedophile’s conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor.
The documents are raising fresh questions about the under-fire prime minister’s judgement.
