Lord Mandelson should never have been ambassador, says Epstein victim’s family | BBC News


The family of Virginia Giuffre, who became the most prominent victim of Jeffrey Epstein, has told the BBC that Lord Mandelson should never have been given the position of UK ambassador to the United States.

In an exclusive interview on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Virginia’s brother Sky Roberts said the appointment "speaks to how deep the corruption goes in our systems".

Business Secretary Peter Kyle told the BBC it was "highly unlikely" Lord Mandelson would have been appointed if the extent of his relationship with Epstein was known to those in government.

There is no suggestion that Lord Mandelson ever met Giuffre. He said last week, that "perhaps as a gay man", he never sought or was offered introductions to women from Epstein.
