Cabinet minister Liz Kendall says Sir Keir Starmer would have cancelled Peter Mandelson's appointment had he known Mandelson had failed vetting. "The one thing I know about Keir Starmer is that if even at the last minute, the day before the president's inauguration, he had been told that [Mandelson] had not been passed the UK security vetting, he wouldn't have appointed him," she added. Starmer publicly announced Mandelson's appointment in December 2024, before vetting had been done. #skynews #
