Later, a massive batch of roughly three million additional pages, images, and videos was made publicly accessible in January 2026.The scandal rocked the British establishment, leading to the arrest of prominent personalities, such as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, King ​Charles' brother, and Peter Mandelson, the former ​British ambassador to the US.Additionally, the Peter Mandelson controversy was one of the main reasons for the resignation of Keir Starmer as Prime Minister. Especially when his link with Epstein was known before his appointment as an ambassador to the US in December 2024.According to Reuters, the British police are investigating multiple allegations related to Epstein, possibly ​ranging from child sex abuse to women trafficking."Survivors have heard promises before, so what matters now is action, not headlines”, said Anouska di Georgiou, an Epstein survivor, to the BBC."We are looking into this. We are ⁠what is possible", said Jones, who was reappointed as victims minister upon Burnham’s takeover.In May, Jones had resigned from the same position, later accusing Starmer's government of failing to listen to Epstein's survivors.She mentioned having discussions with Burnham on the issue before he became the Prime Minister, saying the now-PM would work for delivering justice to Epstein’s victims.Additionally, Jones said any public inquiry ​could ⁠also examine the alleged actions of Mohamed al-Fayed, the late Egyptian billionaire accused ​of rape and sexual assault by victims, reportedly numbering in the hundreds.
