A lot of conspiracy crap.

Peter Mandelson is an experienced, effective negotiator able to deal with the demented orange toddler in the white house.

His friendship with Epstein was irrelevant and I don't expect anyone thought he would share government information with him. The allegations against him date from before 2010 during the previous Labour Government and they only came to light this year.

The vetting process takes place under the relevant department and only the conclusion of the process is given to the department, other information is retained as confidential to conform with data protection. https://x.com/i/status/2044879509820743872

A lot of conspiracy crap.

Peter Mandelson is an experienced politician he was judged to be able to deal with the orange toddler in the white house which he did very effectively. His relationship with Epstein was irrelevant to this.

The investigation into him relates to the previous Labour Government before 2010.

The FO instigated the vetting process and would receive the conclusions.

Preston explains what went wrong and who was responsible.

Great article as ever, Rikki. Sorry I'm not currently re-posting your articles on X…. The platform’s become too painful for me so I'm going dormant there, at least for a while.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Tony Blair’s Institute for Global Change’s fingerprints were found all over this.
