Starmer sacks UK ambassador to US Peter Mandelson over Epstein links

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has dismissed Britain’s ambassador to Washington, Peter Mandelson, after new revelations about his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Foreign Office confirmed on Thursday, September 11, 2025, that Mandelson was withdrawn from his post following the emergence of emails showing he defended Epstein during his 2008 conviction. “The emails show that the depth and extent of Peter Mandelson’s relationship with Jeffrey Epstein is materially different from that known at the time of his appointment,” the statement said. In the exchanges, published by The Sun and Bloomberg, Mandelson urged Epstein to “fight for early release”, telling him he was “following you closely and here whenever you need.” He also suggested Epstein’s conviction was wrongful and should be challenged. One email read: “I think the world of you.” It was sent the day before Epstein […]

Kemi Badenoch warns UK risks repeat of 1976 IMF bailout crisis

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has warned that Britain could face a humiliating International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout, drawing stark parallels with the 1976 sterling crisis. In a BBC interview, cited by PUNCH Online on Tuesday, Badenoch expressed concern that Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labour government was steering the country into a “doom loop” of high taxes, fragile public finances, and soaring borrowing costs. She argued that without a robust economic growth plan, the UK risked sliding into fiscal ruin that might force it to seek emergency international aid. “We are not growing enough. If Labour continues with no plan for growth, we’ll end up going to the IMF cap in hand,” Badenoch said. Her comments come amid heightened market jitters, with UK borrowing costs recently hitting a 27-year high before easing. Labour hit back sharply, branding Badenoch’s intervention “astonishing hypocrisy.” […]

UK PM: Russia’s Ukraine Strikes Show Putin Rejects Peace

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has condemned Russia’s latest wave of air strikes on Ukraine, describing the attacks as evidence that President Vladimir Putin is “not serious about peace.” In a statement on Sunday, Starmer said he was “appalled by the latest brutal overnight assault on Kyiv and across Ukraine.” “These cowardly strikes show that Putin believes he can act with impunity. He is not serious about peace,” the UK leader added. The remarks come after Ukrainian authorities reported fresh Russian missile and drone barrages targeting the capital Kyiv and other regions overnight, leaving widespread damage and civilian casualties. The United Kingdom remains one of Ukraine’s strongest backers, providing military aid, humanitarian support, and diplomatic pressure on Moscow since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022. Starmer reaffirmed that Britain would continue to stand with Kyiv, urging international partners […]

Western Allies Vow Troop Deployment to Ukraine After Ceasefire Deal

French President Emmanuel Macron announced that 26 Western allies have formally committed to deploying troops “by land, sea, or air” to Ukraine once a ceasefire deal is reached. The pledge followed a Paris summit of 35 countries dubbed the Coalition of the Willing. Macron accused Russia of deliberately stalling peace talks to gain more territory. Hopes for a Ukraine-Russia peace summit dimmed after Vladimir Putin met Donald Trump in Alaska last month. Trump has since spoken with Western allies and is expected to finalize US support soon, though he criticized EU states still purchasing Russian oil, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said. The EU aims to end Russian oil and gas imports by 2027, but Hungary and Slovakia remain among the bloc’s biggest buyers. While Washington has ruled out sending ground troops, Trump has hinted at possible air support, which could […]

EU Slams Russia After Deadly Missile Strikes on Kyiv

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has condemned Russia’s deadliest attack on Kyiv since July, which killed 17 people, including four children, and damaged the EU’s delegation office in the Ukrainian capital. A five-storey residential block in the Darnytskyi district collapsed after being struck by a missile in the early hours of Thursday. Ukrainian officials said many of the victims were trapped inside their homes, with rescue workers digging through rubble to search for survivors. Three of the children killed were aged two, 14 and 17. Von der Leyen described the bombardment as “another grim reminder” of Russia’s intent to terrorise civilians, noting that two missiles landed just 50 metres from the EU delegation. Images shared by EU officials showed shattered windows and ceilings torn down at the mission’s Kyiv office. The British Council, housed in the same block, […]

On Eve of US-Russia Talks, Starmer Welcomes Zelensky to London

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in London on Thursday to show support for Ukraine. The meeting came just a day before a major US-Russia summit that Ukraine and European allies are not invited to. Starmer greeted Zelensky with a handshake and hug outside 10 Downing Street. Earlier in the day, Zelensky joined a video call with US President Donald Trump and other European leaders. On Friday, Trump will meet Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska—Putin’s first visit to Western territory since he invaded Ukraine in February 2022. The war has killed tens of thousands. Many fear the meeting could lead to a deal that pressures Ukraine into giving up territory. Starmer said there is now a “real chance” for a ceasefire after more than three years of fighting. Overnight, Ukraine sent dozens of drones into […]

JD Vance Sees ‘Good Chance’ of Trade Deal With Britain

Vice President JD Vance expressed optimism about a future U.S.-U.K. trade deal under a potential Trump administration, citing President Trump’s affinity for Britain as a reassuring signal for a nation recently subjected to his 10% tariff policy. In an interview published Tuesday by the British outlet UnHerd, Vance emphasized Trump’s admiration for King Charles III, calling the U.S.-U.K. bond “a very important relationship.” He also noted ongoing collaboration with Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government, stating, “There’s a good chance we’ll come to a great agreement that’s in the best interest of both countries.” While details of a potential deal remain vague, negotiations are expected to face hurdles. Past U.S.-U.K. trade talks have stalled over contentious issues like American agricultural imports, including chlorine-washed chicken and hormone-treated beef—products long opposed by British critics. The U.S. has prioritized trade discussions with Japan and other […]
