Former UK ambassador to the US arrested on suspicion of misconduct over Epstein ties
"There are email chains where Mandelson appears to forward Epstein government information within four seconds of receiving it himself, where he gives Epstein market-sensitive data to pass to his banker friends and where he apparently tells Epstein to tell JPMorgan CEO Jami"
"Paul Sinclair is a former adviser to Mandelson's now ruling Labour Party. They worked together after the 2008 banking crisis. And he says what police are investigating, misconduct in public office, sounds conservative. Sinclair calls it espionage."
"After being fired as ambassador last year, Mandelson told the BBC he regrets his long friendship with Epstein. It was a most terrible mistake."
Peter Mandelson, the former British ambassador to the United States, was arrested on suspicion of providing sensitive government information to deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. This allegation mirrors charges against Prince Andrew. Mandelson previously acknowledged his friendship with Epstein as a mistake after being fired from his ambassadorial position. The investigation intensified following the release of Epstein files by the U.S. Justice Department in late January. Evidence suggests Mandelson forwarded government information to Epstein within seconds of receiving it and shared market-sensitive data intended for banker associates. Former Labour Party adviser Paul Sinclair characterizes the conduct as espionage rather than simple misconduct in public office.
