Andrew, Mandelson and Epstein IV | Baroness Claire Fox on whether the Peter Mandelson scandal could bring down Keir Starmer

Baroness Claire Fox, independent peer and director of The Academy of Ideas, comes on The Julia Hartley-Brewer Show to discuss the political fall-out from Peter Mandelson’s appointment as US ambassador. At PMQs this week, Keir Starmer admitted to knowing Mandelson sustained a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein despite Epstein’s conviction for soliciting minors for prostitution.And Keir Starmer made a speech earlier in the day responding to a backbench furore that followed the release of exchanges between Jeffrey Epstein and Lord Mandelson in the latest set of Epstein files. Also: Baroness Fox describes Peter Mandelson’s actions as traitorous - but is frustrated by the possibility that this could bring Keir Starmer. She would have preferred him to go over his ‘betrayal’ of British communities. Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM. Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker.
