The British government published fresh messages and emails connected to Peter Mandelson‘s appointment as U.S. ambassador under Prime Minister Keir Starmer amid knowledge of the now former envoy’s connection to late financier and convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to Politico.
Starmer, who has faced multiple political crises in his administration, had promised to release the files related to Mandelson and his appointment to the ambassador role after documents revealed that Mandelson had corresponded with Epstein years after he was convicted, Politico reported.
“The second tranche of documents includes extensive caches of emails, text messages, and WhatsApp logs passing between government officials, ministers, and special advisers concerning Mandelson’s time in the role — and direct correspondence with the Labour grandee himself,” according to Politico.
Mandelson was removed from his position in September 2025. He was arrested in February and has not yet been charged as police continue to investigate him, Politico reported. His lawyers have said he has cooperated with authorities and apologized “unequivocally” for his ties to Epstein and “to the women and girls that suffered.”
