Former prime minister says Mandelson situation is ‘serious’ for Keir Starmer | BBC News
Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown has told the BBC the situation facing Sir Keir Starmer is “serious” and suggested he may have been “too slow to do the right things” concerning Lord Mandelson.
He also defended him as “a man of integrity” who “wants to do the right things”.
He spoke to the Today programme on Radio 4 in his first interview since the latest Epstein files seemed to show Lord Mandelson gave Epstein advance notice of a €500bn bailout by the EU to save the ailing Euro in 2010.
Another included a 2009 memo in which Brown’s policy adviser Nick Butler wrote about the UK’s struggling economy and recommended selling off government-held assets to raise public funds.
Brown said this was “market-sensitive” information as people can make money from changes in the values of currencies.
Lord Mandelson has not given the BBC an official statement but his position is that he has not acted in any way criminally and that he was not motivated by financial gain.

The US wants the war with Russia to end by June and both sides had been invited to the US for talks next week, said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
“America proposed for the first time that the two negotiating teams – Ukraine and Russia – meet in the United States of America, probably in Miami, in a week. We confirmed our participation,” he said.
There was no immediate comment from Washington or Moscow, but US President Donald Trump has been pushing for an end for the conflict since he took office again more than a year ago.
Meanwhile, Russia has continued its attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure – causing further widespread blackouts during freezing conditions.
