Could this be the scandal that ends Keir Starmer’s career?
The Prime Minister is under fire in one of the biggest political scandals of the century after appointing Peter Mandelson, despite his links to Jeffrey Epstein.
Former Labour Deputy Leader Harriet Harman argues it could bring down the Prime Minister, questioning whether Starmer can survive the fallout or if it’s already too late to reset his leadership.
She says Starmer’s response this week made him look “gullible and naive”.
Beth Rigby, Ruth Davidson and Harriet Harman discuss:
• Why the Mandelson appointment has caused such outrage
• Whether Keir Starmer can recover politically
• How power, loyalty and silence operate inside the political and media establishment
• The network Mandelson built, and why it still matters today
They also examine what this scandal says about modern British politics and accountability at the very top.
Peter Mandelson denies any wrongdoing and has apologised to the victims of Jeffrey Epstein.
