YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The former top official in Britain's foreign ministry — who was sacked over Peter Mandelson's appointment as U.S. ambassador — said he had faced "constant pressure" from Prime Minister Keir Starmer's office to speed up the appointment of his pick as the ambassador to the U.S.

The row over who bears responsibility for appointing Peter Mandelson as Britain's top envoy to Washington, despite his links to Jeffrey Epstein, is mounting pressure on Starmer and prompting critics to demand his resignation.
