UK media, incl. the BBC’s flagship political show, is rehabilitating a man who was “best pals” with one of the world’s most notorious paedophiles & still refuses to apologise to Epstein’s victims.
He retains the Labour whip in the Lords. That tells you everything about the political & media class.

Mandelson claims he was “kept separate” from Epstein’s crimes because he’s gay.
Yet stayed in touch until 2016 & on the eve of Epstein being jailed for child sex abuse charges, wrote: “I think the world of you & I feel hopeless & furious”, urged him to “fight for early release”, & offered support.

Aye right, like they stopped sharing intel and flying over Gaza spying for Israel to stop War Crimes and Genocide. 👿
British officials are now plainly worried that America might use British-supplied intelligence, such as intercepts that show the location of boats, to commit war crimes
