Why Peter Mandelson is becoming Labour’s most toxic problem | UK Politics | Political Currency

The Peter Mandelson scandal has shaken British politics to its core and may be the most seismic since the Profumo Affair. Ed Balls and George Osborne unpack the fallout from the release of the nearly 3 million Epstein files and the revelations concerning the financiers links to the ex-minister and former UK Ambassador to the United States. With Keir Starmer under intense pressure over Mandelson’s appointment, they examine how No.10 has lost control of the story and how the Prime Minister might prevent the crisis from ending his leadership. The pair also look at the shocking levels of misogyny contained within the emails, and how sickening it was to find someone they both know engaging in behaviour they thought unthinkable. 🎧 LISTEN to Political Currency now, wherever you get your podcasts!
