Starmer sees off major Labour rebellion over call for Mandelson inquiry
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has faced and overcome a Labour rebellion over a bid to launch a parliamentary inquiry into his appointment of Peter Mandelson as ambassador to the US. The government defeated a Conservative motion, but 15 Labour MPs rebelled, and others expressed concerns about a perceived cover-up. Revelations included pressure on officials to expedite Mandelson's security vetting and his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
