Freshly released Mandelson files are adding new pressure on UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer instead of ending the controversy. More than 1,500 pages of government documents have revealed new details about how Peter Mandelson secured the key role of Britain's ambassador to the United States during President Donald Trump's second term. Mandelson's past friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein has already sparked intense political scrutiny, and the latest files are raising fresh questions about government judgment, security concerns, and what officials knew before approving the appointment. The documents, released following demands for transparency from lawmakers, have reignited debate across Westminster and placed Starmer's government under renewed pressure.
