Peter Mandelson resigns from Lords after Epstein email leak scandal Former minister apparently shared confidential government emails with child sex offender and financier

www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

โ€œThe prime minister believes there is a broader need for the House of Lords to be able to remove transgressors more quickly,โ€ his spokesperson said.

Hypocrisy and double standards sink into the unplumbed depths of a parallel universe.

Breaking:

The European Commission said on Tuesday it would investigate Mandelson, who was European trade commissioner from 2004-8 before leaving early to return to UK politics.

Mandelson draws a pension from his time there and has to adhere to a code of conduct for former staff.

There are some good people in the Lords who are devoted to public service, not personal advancement, and who have been able to rein in some of the worst excesses of the lower chamber.

The Lords should be greatly reduced in size and membership subject to stringent vetting and independent oversight.
