"About a week out from the state visit of President Trump we have no ambassador and a Foreign Secretary that has been in the job for only a few days. What a total fiasco!!! And this is all Starmer's fault. I can see him being gone by Christmas."
"People will say this raises questions about Starmer's judgment but it really just confirms what we already knew. What was he thinking? It shows once again that he's not up to the job of Prime Minister."
"Mandelson might have gone but, just as with Angela Rayner, Starmer dithered when he needed to be decisive. Time and again he puts party above country. He has no backbone and no convictions. There are now serious questions over what Starmer knew and when. We deserve to know."
The Prime Minister removed Peter Mandelson as ambassador to the US over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Sir Keir Starmer had stated he had total confidence in Mandelson during Prime Minister's Questions. Shadow figures and senior Conservatives criticized Starmer's judgement, citing Angela Rayner's recent resignation over a separate scandal. Critics warned that the timing leaves no ambassador just before a planned state visit by President Trump and called the situation a fiasco. Media commentary described the government as facing a full-blown crisis and urged disclosure about what the Prime Minister knew and when.
