Starmer Faces Mandelson Vetting Scandal

Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to address the House of Commons to explain why Peter Mandelson was sent to Washington despite failing vital security checks.

Opposition leaders and some Labour MPs have questioned the Prime Minister's judgment and the transparency of the ambassadorial selection process.

Sacked Foreign Office head Sir Olly Robbins is expected to provide testimony that could further challenge the government's narrative.

The scandal has led to widespread calls for Starmer's resignation as he attempts to shift blame toward civil service 'fall guys.'
