00:00Senior Labour MPs have called for Lord Mandelson to face investigation after documents released
00:06in the Epstein files suggested he may have shared sensitive information with Jeffrey Epstein.
00:13The allegations relate to the period when Mandelson was a Cabinet minister under Gordon
00:18Brown. MP for West Derby Ian Byrne said the claims strengthened the case for applying the
00:24Hillsborough Law to hold ministers accountable for improper conduct. He said it cannot come quickly
00:30enough. Officials stress no criminal charges have been brought. Sources indicate investigations are
00:36ongoing and any legal action would depend on evidence being formally assessed. Mandelson has
00:42declined to comment publicly.
