Another day and another podcast dominated by Peter Mandelson – but as the political pressure ramps up across parliament, how will Number 10 react and is the carnage over?

In a frantic 24 hours, Lord Mandelson gave up his peerage and the Metropolitan Police announced it is reviewing reports of alleged misconduct in public office over accusations he leaked sensitive government information to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Facing a key Conservative vote in the House of Commons later today – can Sir Keir Starmer bury his associations with Lord Mandelson and his decision to appoint him as the UK’s ambassador to the United States?

Plus, Sam explains the significance of the battle ahead in parliament between the prime minister, his own MPs and opposition parties on whether he will be forced to disclose confidential vetting documents from Peter Mandelson’s appointment as US ambassador.
