Mandelson is a former government minister, EU commissioner and until recently as you may recall the diplomatic service.
The arrests are happening!
When are the arrests going to start here such as with Bill Clinton?
“””The arrests are happening! “””
Not in the USA. Different rules and laws in the UK. Treason probably has a longer statue of limitations than prostitution.
What misconduct? Did he call a Furrie by the wrong gender?
I'm starting to think the Epstein files may contain a lot of evidence of corruption among our political "leaders". Yes, there's the whole pedo angle, but it seems as if there's a lot of financial corruption and possibly espionage in there as well.
“The arrests are happening!”
Not so much in the US.
were andrew and mandelson blackmailed into handing over sensitive material?
There’s a lot of talk that Charles may have to pass the baton to William to save the monarchy.
GREAT! Thanks for posting.
And if William’s fingerprints are found amongst the evidence?
“””When are the arrests going to start here such as with Bill Clinton?”””
What would they arrest him for?
I think William and Kate are clean. William is reportedly furious about Andrew’s antics.
“The arrests are happening!”
Would like to see that monster Ehud Barak perp walked, I suspect he was also one of the honeypot handlers.
They make a show of the arrest, with immediate release and then what? Anyone really expecting to see that nonce Andrew spending time in jail.
News reports from February 23, 2026, say British police arrested Lord Peter Mandelson, former U.K. ambassador to the United States, on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
The arrest stems from an investigation into allegations that, while serving as a government minister (Business Secretary) in 2009, Mandelson shared confidential, market-sensitive information with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Emails released from the U.S. Justice Department’s “Epstein files” suggest Mandelson, during the 2008-2009 global financial crisis, shared information with Epstein regarding U.K. debt reduction and banking regulations. The alleged leaks occurred when Mandelson was serving as the Business Secretary under Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
Mandelson was fired from his position as UK Ambassador to the US in September 2025 following initial revelations about his ties to Epstein. He resigned from the House of Lords shortly before his arrest on February 23, 2026. While acknowledging he maintained a relationship with Epstein longer than he should have, Mandelson has denied acting criminally or being motivated by financial
“William is reportedly furious about Andrew’s antics”
I hope you’re right, but this is exactly the kind of public ‘response’ the palace barristers would be prescribing to save the Crown.
Thinking out loud here - maybe that’s why Prez Trump and his administration seemed to have dragged their feet on the files. It might result in the collapse the UK Monarchy.
I don’t think he would try to protect the Clinton/Democrat machine.
Prediction: He’s going to commit suicide in prison. Its already planned.
Tsar Nicholas II refused to abdicate…until it was too late.
Kaiser Wilhelm II refused to abdicate…until it was too late.
Will Charles follow that same sad pattern? Personally, I think he should immediately abdicate - and in favor of someone way more popular. I am of course referring to…
Peter Mandelson was arrested at his home in Camden, north London, at around 16:30 GMT this afternoon
Mandelson was seen being led away by plain clothes police officers and put into the back of an unmarked car

LOL we don’t do perp walks, you get some dignity (probably undeserved in this case~).
Nonetheless, it’s shameful and embarrassing
I’m starting to think the Epstein files may contain a lot of evidence of corruption among our political “leaders”.
