Lord Mandelson said he resigned from the Labour Party because he “didn’t want to cause further embarrassment” due to his connections with the late child abuser Jeffrey Epstein. Mandelson made something even more ridiculous, saying he didn’t remember receiving $75,000 from Epstein 20 years ago. He speaks as if it were $75,000. The fact that he received $75 from Epstein is documented, yet he’s still lying. Furthermore, Mandelson, who resigned, must explain why he received this money. If he received it for a reason, how did he repay it? Why would a pedophile like Epstein give him such a large sum of money as $75,000? Did Mandelson repay it or not?
Mandelson, a former cabinet minister who was dismissed from his post as US ambassador last year due to his connections with Epstein, was featured in the latest files released by the US Department of Justice on Friday, leaving him with nothing left to deny. He would either resign or be forced to resign by Prime Minister Starmer.
The documents show that Epstein paid Lord Mandelson a total of $75,000 (£55,000) in three separate $25,000 transactions in 2003 and 2004. Lord Mandelson wrote to the Labour Party general secretary: “I need to investigate allegations that I received financial payments 20 years ago, which I believe to be false and of which I have no record or memory.”
If he received no payments from Epstein, how did these documents come into existence? Why did Epstein keep and hide these documents? Mandelson is publicly lying. He thinks that by resigning he will no longer be in the spotlight, but there is no way out. His sins will haunt him.
