00:00Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is preparing to chair a cabinet meeting as police assess
00:07accusations that Lord Peter Mandelson leaked sensitive government information to the late
00:12convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The Metropolitan Police is reviewing reports of
00:18alleged misconduct in a public office after the US Justice Department released millions of pages
00:23as part of the so-called Epstein files. The documents appear to show Mandelson passing
00:28information to Epstein while he was a cabinet minister in Gordon Brown's government. Mandelson
00:34has recently resigned his Labour membership and said he has no record or recollection of alleged
00:40financial payments made to him by Epstein.
