Police have searched two homes linked to Peter Mandelson as part of a corruption investigation. The raids are tied to a probe into misconduct in public office involving a 72-year-old man. Detectives suspect the individual passed sensitive market information to Jeffrey Epstein.

Mandelson was recently fired from his post as the British ambassador to the United States because of his ties to Epstein. Newly released documents suggest that Mandelson received payments from Epstein and leaked private data to him while he was serving as the UK business secretary.

These findings have sparked outrage among several Labour members of parliament. Some officials are now calling for Keir Starmer to be replaced as the party leader.
