1:12Now PlayingU.K. Prime Minister faces growing calls to resign over his U.S. ambassador's ties to Epstein
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelBritish Prime Minister Keir Starmer is facing renewed calls for his resignation over his choice for ambassador to Washington — a veteran diplomat with close ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
There’s been a slow drip of new revelations, including how Peter Mandelson failed the British government’s own internal vetting — but got the ambassador job anyway. Starmer fired him after the extent of his ties to Epstein became public and police have opened an investigation.
His rivals have seized on this ahead of municipal elections next month. Polls forecast Starmer’s center-left Labour Party may do poorly. So far, it’s mostly the opposition calling for his ouster, but if Labour lawmakers join those calls, Starmer’s job could be on the line.
