UK PM said he would not have appointed Mandelson as US ambassador had he known the extent of the envoy’s relationship with the sex offender

Starmer, whose popularity has tanked since taking office in July 2024, has endured several days of negative front pages in UK newspapers, with some even suggesting he is on borrowed time.
