Former British ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson has been arrested by London police on suspicion of misconduct in public office.⁣ ⁣ Mandelson, 72, was fired from the most prestigious posting in Britain's diplomatic service in September, when the depth of his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein started to become clear.⁣ ⁣ Police earlier this month began a criminal investigation into Mandelson after Prime Minister Keir Starmer's government passed on communications between the former ambassador and Epstein.⁣ ⁣ #Mandelson #epstein
