Lord Mandelson

Lord Mandelson has resigned from the Labour Party, saying he does not want to further damage the party's reputation over his past links to convicted paedophile and US financier Jeffrey Epstein, the BBC has reported, following the release of new documents by the US Department of Justice.

In the published files, Mandelson's name is mentioned in connection with three financial payments of $25,000 each, made by Epstein during 2003 and 2004. Mandelson has denied any knowledge of these payments, saying he does not remember them and that he considers the allegations untrue, however, he has stated that he will undertake personal verifications on this matter.

In his resignation letter to the Labour Party, the former senior Labour official expressed deep regret for his relationship with Epstein, apologising in particular to women and girls whose voices he said were not heard at the right time. He stressed that the decision to leave was taken to protect the party's interests.

The release of the documents has sparked a backlash in British politics. Labour MPs have called the resignation a necessary step, while the Conservative opposition has criticised Prime Minister Keir Starmer, saying he should have acted sooner. Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch has also called for an inquiry.

Lord Mandelson, who has held important posts in Labour governments and served as the UK's ambassador to the United States, left his diplomatic post last year precisely because of his links to Epstein.

The published documents also include emails and other materials mentioning his name, however, US authorities have clarified that inclusion in the dossier does not automatically constitute evidence of any criminal wrongdoing.

Jeffrey Epstein died in prison in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.
