'No disguising my embarrassment..I was bursting!' Lord Mandelson caught having wee against Notting Hill wall
"Peter Mandelson was caught urinating against a wall in Notting Hill hours after emails detailing the extent of his friendship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein were published. The former US Ambassador, who was sacked from his role over his links to the late sex offender, was spotted relieving himself against a garden wall after a late-night visit to George Osborne's Notting Hill home. As images of the moment were published by the Daily Mail, Lord Mandelson, 72, said: I can only offer my profuse apologies. I was stood up by two Uber drivers and kept waiting in the street for half an hour and was bursting. There is no disguising my embarrassment."
"He'd arrived at the former Tory chancellor's 10million townhouse three hours earlier on Wednesday evening, carrying an upmarket bottle of Chilean wine., the Mail reported. Lord Mandelson was sacked by Keir Starmer as the UK's ambassador to the US in September after the extent of his friendship with the late financier was uncovered. When he was fired, the Government said the emails showed the depth and extent of Peter Mandelson's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein is materially different from that known at the time of his appointment. Epstein died in a New York jail cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking and conspiracy charges. Lord Mandelson has previously said he deeply regets his frienship with Epstein, saying: I continue to feel utterly awful about my association with Epstein 20 years ago and the plight of his victims."
