Asda Slumps, Starmer Eyes China, and Epstein Scandal Hits Labour

Mandelson Resigns from Labour Party Amid Epstein Links

Peter Mandelson, the United Kingdom's former ambassador to the United States, resigned from the Labour Party following renewed scrutiny of his connections to the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to UK media reports. The resignation, which occurred on February 2, 2026, came after emails detailing Mandelson's associations with Epstein surfaced, leading to his removal as London's top representative in Washington last year, Al Jazeera reported.

Mandelson stated that his decision to resign was to prevent further embarrassment to the governing party, reports said. Mandelson served as the UK's ambassador to the United States before his removal last year.

The Labour Party, led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, has not yet released an official statement regarding Mandelson's resignation. Starmer himself was recently in China, hoping to improve relations after what The Guardian described as a recent "ice age." The last British Prime Minister to visit China was Theresa May in 2018.
