'No. 10 pushed for…': Fired UK official points finger at Starmer over Mandelson row; UK PM to quit?

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing mounting political pressure after admitting he exercised 'wrong judgment' in appointing Peter Mandelson as Britain’s ambassador to Washington. The controversy erupted after Mandelson’s links to Jeffrey Epstein resurfaced, triggering outrage across the political spectrum. Critics say warning signs were ignored and proper vetting procedures were sidelined. U.S. President Donald Trump also weighed in, calling Mandelson a 'really bad pick' and backing criticism of Starmer’s decision.
