Lord Mandelson arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office | BBC News


Today, Peter Mandelson has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

The former British ambassador to the US has been under investigation over allegations he shared market-sensitive government information with Jeffrey Epstein while serving as a minister.

He has not commented publicly since the Metropolitan Police launched their investigation earlier this month, but the BBC understands his position has consistently been that he has not acted in any way criminally and that he was not motivated by financial gain.

Adam and Chris are joined by UK and home affairs correspondent, Daniel Sandford.

Meanwhile, the government has announced long-awaited changes to the system for children with special educational needs and disabilities in England.

Fresh from watching the education secretary Bridget Phillipson announcing the reforms, BBC education editor Branwen Jeffreys joined Adam and Alex to break down exactly what it means.
