The 66-year-old was held on suspicion of misconduct in public office as police were seen outside his Norfolk home. Within hours, former Prime Minister Gordon Brown revealed he had handed detectives a five-page memorandum. This contained what he called "new and additional information". The explosive dossier has been sent to the Metropolitan Police, Surrey, Sussex, Thames Valley and other UK forces. Brown said, "I have submitted new information to ensure justice for trafficked girls and women."

"Well, this is obviously serious. I mean, there's always speculation. It happened to me, it happened to Tony Blair, it happens to everybody about how their future should be gauged. But this is serious and the task is very clear. We've got to clean up the system...and end the corruption and unethical behaviour. And if we don't do it, we'll pay a heavy price."

I have today written to the Met Commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, with information relevant to his investigation of Lord Mandelson's disclosure of market sensitive and confidential Government information to the American financier, Jeffrey Epstein, an inexcusable and unpatriotic act at a time when the whole government and country were attempting to address the global financial crisis that was damaging so many livelihoods.

Gordon Brown has criticized Donald Trump for using tariffs as a weapon, warning that this could lead to a global economic breakdown akin to the 1930s.
