Matthew Steeples suggests the late Jeffrey Epstein’s close chum, meddling ‘Prince of Darkness’ Peter Mandelson, to be totally unfit to be British ambassador to the US
The Right Honourable Lord Mandelson PC is undoubtedly a terribly clever chap. He became known as the ‘Prince of Darkness’ with very good reason and it is understable that he is noted as “ruthless” and “media savvy.” Here, indeed, is a 71-year-old former Young Communist League member who has not only “played the game” for his entire career, but here also is someone who has most definitely “manipulated it” throughout his entire lifetime.
A man who has proven that only the most cunning cats can have more than nine lives – this, it must be remembered is someone who has comeback from scandals galore and in spite of being declared as the second most loathed Labour Party member in 2009, has dominated that organisation for decades – the title of Peter Mandelson’s 2010 memoirs sum him up perfectly. The Third Man: Life at the Heart of New Labour detailed this Hendon, Middlesex born grammar school educated politician’s pivotal role in powerbroking during the Blair-Brown years and even now, Lord Mandelson continues to be described as being a “core part” of the policymaking direction of Sir Keir Starmer’s new government.
Prior to July’s General Election and since, it has been predicted that Lord Mandelson is about to find himself appointed to yet another plummy position, that of His Britannic Majesty’s Ambassador to the United States of America. With such would not only come a ritzy residence in Washington – formerly redecorated in a most tasteless fashion by the Chanel clad charity tin banging finger pointing prized pillock Baroness Meyer in the late 1990s – that was originally designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, but also what is considered to be “one of the most important and prestigious positions in His Majesty’s Diplomatic Service.”
If elevated to such a role, Lord Mandelson would not only have to present British policies to the American government and people and report American policies back to the UK, but he’d also have to be diplomatic and dedicated. Given his pugnacious past, would that even be possible? Given also, for example, in 2018, the peer described Donald Trump as a “bully and a mercantilist,” how on earth could he expect to foster good relations with the returning President?
Aside from being especially chummy with the non-sweaty, Pizza Express loving dimwitted dunce Prince ‘Randy’ Andy, ‘Handy Mandy’ has long been linked with the mucky madam Ghislaine Maxwell via her pension pot plundering papa Robert Maxwell.
Lord Mandelson and his now husband Reinaldo Avila da Silva also holidayed with the late prolific paedophile Jeffrey Epstein in December 2005 whilst “Epstein was under police investigation for numerous sex offences” and then subsequently celebrated his own birthday in January 2007 with him at the sex trafficker’s Paris apartment. In June 2009, even more shockingly, according to the Financial Times, “when he was the UK business secretary, Mandelson stayed at Epstein’s lavish townhouse in Manhattan, while the financier was in prison for soliciting prostitution from a minor.”
One is left asking just one question: Can a meddling man of such poor judgment be considered a suitable person to manage what has long been thought of as the most “special” of relations? The answer can only be “most definitely not.”

I remember a story of Epstein and a young gay male. I think he liked to dress like a girl? And the encounter he had with Epstein… Epstein put on lipstick and made him call him a girl name. Janice? I think. I believe he liked young men as well but they usually don’t come forward as much as girls do. Sad
From what I have garnered, Epstein liked anything with a pulse – female or male. His alleged relationship with one male benefactor often comes up also. He wasn’t quite extreme as Savile, who liked even anything without a pulse, but he sure liked abusing nigh on anything otherwise.
