Mandelson, Starmer, and a Scandal That Was Wired to Explode

The Mandelson affair didn’t arrive as a shock so much as a delayed detonation. On Mid-Atlantic, Roifield Brown and his panel argue that the controversy surrounding Peter Mandelson’s appointment as UK ambassador to the US was neither unforeseeable nor accidental. It was the result of a conscious political decision one that traded judgment and party trust for perceived expediency, and one now threatening to corrode Labour’s credibility as a governing force. Steve O’Neill frames the issue bluntly as a failure of judgment at the very top. Keir Starmer’s admission that he knew about Mandelson’s ongoing relationship with Jeffrey Epstein at the time of the appointment turns the scandal from an oversight into a choice. Leah Brown widens the lens, describing a cultural problem inside Labour’s leadership: a growing comfort with elite networks, transactional politics, and risk-taking that sits uneasily with the party’s professed values. Mandelson, long distrusted by Labour’s rank and file, becomes less an anomaly than a symptom. The panel also grapples with why this scandal has landed so forcefully in Britain while similar Epstein-adjacent figures in the United States remain largely untouched. Mike Donahue argues that American politics has lost its capacity for collective shame, trapped in hyper-partisanship and institutional paralysis. In contrast, Britain—still angry, poorer, and distrustful of elites after Brexit—retains a shared sense that some lines simply should not be crossed. Whether Starmer survives the fallout may depend less on process than on whether Labour can convince voters that this was an aberration, not a reflection of who now governs in its name. Five Key Quotes“This wasn’t bad luck. It was a conscious choice.”“You can have all the vetting processes you like, but someone still decides to override them.”“Mandelson was playing from a different playbook one far closer to billionaires than to Labour members.”“In the US, we’ve lost our sense of shame. Not even this is enough to force accountability.”“The problem isn’t just Mandelson being found out it’s how many others are playing the same game.”Further Reading / References MentionedChannel 4 Dispatches (2019) investigation into Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey EpsteinHistorical comparison: The Profumo Affair (1960s UK political scandal)Ongoing criminal and parliamentary investigations relating to Epstein-linked figures Hosted on Acast.

Ep:9 The Monroe Doctrine - Zack Twamley - When Diplomacy Fails

The Monroe Doctrine was a U.S. foreign policy regarding domination of the Americas in 1823. It stated that further efforts by European nations to colonise land or interfere with states in North or South America would be viewed as acts of aggression, requiring U.S. intervention. The Doctrine was issued in 1823 at a time when nearly all Latin American colonies of Spain and Portugal had achieved or were at the point of gaining independence from the Portuguese and Spanish Empires. The United States, working in agreement with Great Britain, wanted to guarantee that no European power would move in. President James Monroe first stated the doctrine during his seventh annual State of the Union Address to Congress. The term "Monroe Doctrine" itself was coined in 1850. By the end of the 19th century, Monroe's declaration was seen as a defining moment in the foreign policy of the United States and one of its longest-standing tenets. It would be invoked by many U.S. statesmen and several U.S. presidents, including Ulysses S. Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan and many others. The intent and impact of the Monroe Doctrine persisted with only minor variations for more than a century. Its stated objective was to free the newly independent colonies of Latin America from European intervention and avoid situations which could make the New World a battleground for the Old World powers, so that the United States could exert its own influence undisturbed. The doctrine asserted that the New World and the Old World were to remain distinctly separate spheres of influence, for they were composed of entirely separate and independent nations.

The Mark Carney Moment, Canada’s New Global Role

In this episode of Mid-Atlantic, Roifield Brown sits down with Canadian political commentator and host of The O Show, Laura Babcock, to dissect Canada’s unexpected political upheaval and its new identity on the world stage. With Mark Carney now prime minister, what was once unimaginable has become policy: a technocratic, globally respected leader is now seen by many Canadians as their country’s best defense against the growing unpredictability of the United States under Donald Trump. Babcock explains how Trump’s revived “51st state” rhetoric and a separatist push from Alberta have shaken Canadian politics out of its usual calm. Mark Carney, a former governor of both the Bank of England and the Bank of Canada, was drafted into leadership in a moment of national anxiety. The result? What many are calling the “Carney Doctrine” a centrist, pragmatic, globally cooperative approach that reasserts Canada's place as a serious voice in a chaotic international landscape. But this isn’t a cheerleading session. Carney’s past as a global banker still raises eyebrows among populists, and there are strategic risks in rebalancing trade and security away from the U.S. toward other powers like China. Still, Babcock argues that Carney's blend of calm pragmatism and sharp global insight has given Canada a renewed sense of unity, purpose and relevance. Hosted on Acast.
