The British government announced on Thursday that it had fired its ambassador to Washington, Peter Mandelson, after a flurry of emails and other correspondence painted a vivid portrait of his close ties to the financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. In a statement, the British Foreign Office said, “The emails show that the depth and extent of Peter Mandelson’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein is materially different from that known at the time of his appointment.”The government singled out an email from Mr. Mandelson to Mr. Epstein in 2008, in which Mr. Mandelson lamented Mr. Epstein’s conviction for soliciting sex from a minor and gave him advice about how to fight his legal troubles. “Peter Mandelson’s suggestion that Jeffrey Epstein’s first conviction was wrongful and should be challenged is new information,” the statement said. “In light of that, and mindful of the victims of Epstein’s crimes, he has been withdrawn as ambassador with immediate effect.”

2003Lord Mandelson’s message to Epstein in which he describes him as his “best pal” is included in a “birthday book” compiled by British convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. Epstein is later arrested and Bloomberg reports that Lord Mandelson asks the paedophile for updates on the same day, saying “keep me posted”. 2010During his time as business secretary, Lord Mandelson makes a deal with Epstein for the sale of a UK taxpayer-owned banking business. The House Oversight Committee in the US releases a number of documents from the Epstein estate, including the “birthday book” with Lord Mandelson’s message in it. The Prime Minister faces growing calls to sack Lord Mandelson over his association with Epstein.

The anonymous street artist Banksy caused a stir on Monday with a striking new work depicting a judge attacking a protester with a gavel, painted on one of Britain’s most prestigious court buildings. The image, in black and white, apart from a splatter of red on the demonstrator’s sign, appeared on an outer wall of the Royal Courts of Justice, an imposing London complex that houses the High Court and Court of Appeal of England and Wales and is considered one of the most secure locations in Britain. Now, just two days later, Banksy’s latest work is gone. The complex had quickly moved to block the artwork from public view, moving large metal screens in front of it on Monday. Then, on Wednesday morning, visitors to the mural filmed a man, wearing a mask, scrubbing the image off the walls, with two police officers standing guard nearby.

Speaking at Prime Minister’s Questions on Wednesday, Sir Keir Starmer said “due process was followed” during the appointment of Lord Mandelson to the position. Lord Mandelson is also reported to have told Epstein to “fight for early release” shortly before he was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Lord Mandelson described the words he used in his birthday message as “very embarrassing to see and read”. Deputy leader candidate Bell Ribeiro-Addy told the I newspaper there should be an investigation into a deal Lord Mandelson made with Epstein during his time as business secretary. “So will the Prime Minister publish all these documents, including those about his interests?”The Prime Minister said: “Well, as I say, full due process was gone through in relation to this appointment, as would be expected.

One friend compared him to the main character in Ernest Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea,” except instead of fish, Jeffrey Epstein caught women, “blonde, red or brunette.”Another friend described a demeaning sexual encounter that a woman endured in the back of a car that left Mr. Epstein “howling with laughter.”“So many girls, so little time,” wrote a third associate of Mr. Epstein. Such tributes are part of the “birthday book,” which was dedicated to Mr. Epstein on his 50th birthday in 2003.

Britain’s Ambassador to the United States Peter Mandelson speaks during a reception at the ambassador’s residence in February. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Wednesday that he has “confidence” in the country’s ambassador to the United States, who faces mounting criticism of his links to the convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein took his own life in prison in August 2019 while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges, more than a decade after his conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor. A skilled political operator, Mandelson is no stranger to controversy, having twice resigned from former Prime Minister Tony Blair’s government in 1998 and 2001.
