The British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is under intense political pressure, with calls for him to resign, over his decision to appoint Lord Mandelson as the UK’s ambassador to the United States, despite his links to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The leader of Sir Keir’s Labour Party in Scotland, Anas Sarwar, has become the Prime Minister's most senior colleague to say he must step down for the sake of his party and the country.
Sir Keir nominated Lord Mandelson for the UK’s top diplomatic post in December 2024, despite knowing he had continued his relationship with Epstein after his conviction and jail sentence. Sir Keir was forced to dismiss Lord Mandelson nine months later, when email exchanges between the two men were released.
The scandal developed into a crisis threatening Sir Keir’s leadership with the recent release of documents by the US Justice Department, which appear to show that Peter Mandelson leaked market-sensitive information to Epstein when he was a government minister.
Sir Keir’s chief of staff Morgan McSweeney has resigned, taking responsibility for advising the Prime Minister to appoint Lord Mandelson as ambassador. Sir Keir’s head of communications has also left his job.
For now the Prime Minister has won the support of some of his members of parliament, but is facing open speculation that his days in office may be numbered.

Today is now officially the hottest ever June day, breaking the 1976 record.
A temperature of 35.7C has been recorded in Charlwood, Surrey, according to the Met Office.
This year marks half a century since the 1976 heatwave: a summer when people put foil over windows to keep out the sun and were forced to use standpipes in the street as water supplies ran short.
The UK's all-time high is 40.3C, recorded in July 2022.

Red heat alerts have been issued in the UK, France, Spain and other nations across western and central Europe as heatwave conditions are forecast to intensify in the coming days with highs of more than 40C.
Day time temperatures are due to hit 40C this week in France and in Spain temperatures are set to peak above 40C in some areas.
Meanwhile, the UK and Germany are both bracing for its hottest June day on record, with temperatures forecast to rise above 35C in the UK and 40C in Germany.
The rising temperatures are being driven by hot air moving north from the Sahara desert, which is in turn trapping hot air over the affected areas, with forecasters suggesting the conditions could result in one of the longest heatwaves in recent years.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has condemned protesters’ attacks on police in Southampton over the handling of Henry Nowak’s murder.
Starmer called the scenes “disgraceful”, while Hampshire Police said 11 officers and a police dog were injured during protests in the city on Tuesday evening. Two people were arrested.
The 18-year-old student was stabbed by Vickrum Digwa in December and was handcuffed by police as he lay dying on the ground.

The murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak, and his treatment by police in the moments before his death, have sparked a backlash in Britain.
Newly released video shows that Mr Nowak, who was white, was handcuffed and arrested as he lay dying - despite telling officers he had been stabbed and couldn't breathe. His killer, Sikh man Vickrum Digwa, had falsely accused him of a racist attack.
The BBC's political correspondent Rob Watson tells us that the case has provoked a debate about race and policing in the UK.
Nigel Farage, the leader of the right-wing populist Reform Party, has claimed Mr Nowak's death was evidence of "anti-white prejudice" and "two-tier policing", suggesting that the British public react with "pure, cold rage". Prime Minister Keir Starmer has urged calm, and accused Mr Farage of exploiting the murder to create "grievance and division". He has also said the police face "serious questions".
On Tuesday, at least 11 police officers were injured in clashes with protestors near the site of the murder.
Hampshire Police Chief Constable Alexis Boon has said the force is "sorry for handcuffing and arresting Henry", and that an investigation by the police watchdog will aim to understand the officers' actions.

Children aged 17 or younger will face a lifelong ban on buying cigarettes in the UK, as the Tobacco and Vapes Bill clears Parliament.
Both the Commons and Lords have settled on a final draft of the "landmark" legislation, which aims to stop anyone born after 1 January 2009 from taking up smoking by making it illegal for shops to sell them tobacco, to create a smoke-free generation.
When it gets royal assent, ministers will also have new powers to regulate tobacco, vaping and nicotine products, including their flavours and packaging.
It is part of a series of measures aimed at tackling the health effects of smoking, one of the UK's leading causes of preventable death, disability and ill health.
