1862: Smear Campaign

He then went on to be restored to the cabinet and then had to be fired for trying to get the very rich billionaire Indian Hinduja brothers, tycoons there in India British passports under the counter. for that and then we had of course the Epstein affair so all through that then star admits in the house when asked by Bader not did you know that Peter Mandelson had continued a friendship with the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein while he was in jail and had stayed at his apartment in Manhattan while he was in jail for child sex offenses. Did you know that Prime Minister? Yes I did so, he knew that

the connections between what they were, clearly this Mandelson I think it might be in this clip or in the next one. They wanted Mandelson close to Trump as soon as possible because they knew that Mandelson well...they call him The Prince of Darkness and so hey! They wanted their guy close to Trump as the ambassador in the United States to the UK and Esther Krakow who's an international affairs commentator has some background on that. So today during Prime Minister's question times, Keir Starmer was forced to admit that he actually did know about Peter Mandelstam association with Jeffrey Epstein in a security briefing so he was asked point blank and point blank in the dispatch box whether he actually knew during the vetting process which Kier Starmer actually even celebrated Peter Mandelstam coming on board before the vetting was complete so he'd already made his mind up that this man is going to be the US ambassador

someone who had a clean track record to begin with. But it's clear that Labour is so bereft of talent, that they had to bring someone whose nickname is I kid you not the Prince of Darkness into the Labour sort of high office to try and get anything done. Unfortunately even during Peter Mandelson brief stint as US ambassador no one knew his name because basically Nigel Farage was our de facto ambassador and he actually peddled more influence for the Americans than Peter Mandelson did But his association with Jeffrey Epstein has proven to be extremely ugly. He called, you know, Jeffrey Epstein being released from prison on Liberation Day and the email exchanges between the two suggest that Peter Mandelson was happy to use this influence to try and influence bankers bonuses during the financial crisis, the sale of a bank

or he was sacked, I'm not sure. Testifying before the parliamentary committee which is the nail in the coffin for Starmer and for what i think was a clear gambit to get close to Trump maybe use some Epstein sap who knows And I think the president, that's when he said you know we should probably release all this Epstein stuff. Let's get it all out there. Can i ask you this? So let's move on... I think throughout January honestly my office the foreign secretary's office were under constant pressure there was an atmosphere of constant chasing. Daily phone calls? I couldn't say for certain daily but certainly very frequent from private office to private office, has this been delivered yet never any interest as far as i recall in weather but only an interest in when When you say private office to private office are you saying private office of number 10

was what I felt was a generally dismissive attitude to his vetting clearance. The focus was on getting Mandelson out of Washington quickly Despite this atmosphere, an atmosphere of pressure the department completed developed vetting to the normal high standard Because the vetting process is not there to determine fitness for office or reputational risk. It's there to protect national security Yeah, so there you go Wait you show you So your analysis has it that Mandelson was put over here on purpose to do something did Trump? yeah, he had all the trump guys figured added two and two where his team did and Then they rolled out all the Epstein stuff and got that guy out of here Mandelson was the first one to go if you recall yes

not a whole lot he is worth more than 100 million dollars who doesn't count his wife was there that this day louder fortune but not just financial disclosure form is pretty opaque about how and where that money's invested senator warren grilled warship out whether he has financial ties to the trump family or to china or even jeffrey epstein what senator I am very tirelessly with the ethics officials at the office of government yes you have now I'm doing after we went down $100,000 and have agreed senator to sell All of my financial assets were stuck that question with a promise to sell those undisclosed assets before he starts work at the Fed. How soon would he start work?
