Enda Brady: UK correspondent on the UK Government releasing files related to Lord Mandelson's appointment

The UK Prime Minister was warned of the risk of appointing Lord Mandelson as US ambassador, given his ties with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Documents released by the UK Government include advice warning Sir Keir Starmer the relationship continued after Epstein's conviction.

UK correspondent Enda Brady says this will create extra political pressure for Starmer, especially following the recent local elections.
