The Jeffrey Epstein curse is a real thing – just ask Prince Andrew or – even better – Ghislaine Maxwell.
Once someone is marked in the public eye as an Epstein friend or client, it becomes very difficult to cleanse their reputation.
Take, for instance, the very controversial Lord Peter Mandelson, the man chosen by failing UK Prime Minster Keir Starmer to be the next ambassador to the US: no matter how much time has passed, or how he has tried to whitewash his biography, there’s just no way his connection to Epstein is going to be memory-holed, even if ‘Petey’ throws tantrums when confronted with it.
It has arisen today that Lord Mandelson told a journalist very unceremoniously to ‘f*ck off’ when asked about his relationship with the late pedophile ‘financier’.
The Telegraph reported:
“When asked about his relationship with the financier by the Financial Times, Lord Mandelson said he did not want to discuss it.
He said: ‘I regret ever meeting him or being introduced to him by his partner Ghislaine Maxwell. I regret even more the hurt he caused to many young women. I’m not going to go into this. It’s an FT [Financial Times] obsession and frankly you can all [f*ck off]. OK?’”

Mandelson made the comments during an in-depth interview with The Financial Times as he prepares to take up his new role as Britain’s ambassador to the US.
“He had previously retracted his characterization of Donald Trump, the US president as ‘a danger to the world’, and insisted that he would approach the new administration with ‘respect, seriousness and understanding of where they are coming from politically.’”
PM Starmer’s spokesman declined to say whether it was appropriate for Lord Mandelson to tell the journalist to ‘f*ck off’ – maybe they think it’s cool.

“Pressed on Sir Keir personally choosing Lord Mandelson for a ‘sensitive diplomatic job’, [the spokesman] said: ‘The Prime Minister made clear on the appointment the experience Lord Mandelson has to become the ambassador to the US. […] He’s widely respected, he’s got significant experience and will be an excellent ambassador to the US’.”
Mendelson added in the interview: “Some around Mr Trump see me as they view many in Europe. They see me as a Left-wing progressive, somebody who might even be anti-business or somebody who might be following the sort of liberalism they’ve just defeated in America. What they will discover is I’m not an uber-liberal, I’m not a wokey-cokey sort of person, and I’m pro-market and pro-business.”
