But I have to tell the Labour leadership that those most comfortable with any sign of Mandelson at the top table are not those closest to Starmer, and definitely not those who want to see Labour back in power. The greatest comfort zone will be within the Tory Party, their strategists, advisors and indeed dirty tricks specialists, and also the right-leaning part of our free and fearless press. Because, to them, Mandelson is a gift.
Starmer can be the most clean and upstanding candidate for Prime Minister - not difficult, given the behaviour and track record of Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson - but that will count for nothing if he can be attacked by proxy. Guilt by association is going to be the name of the game, and it’s a game the Tories will be only too willing to play. How so?
“Mandelson bought a home in Notting Hill in 1996 partly with an interest-free loan of £373,000 from Geoffrey Robinson, a cabinet colleague and millionaire whose business dealings were subject to an inquiry by Mandelson's department. [He] contended that he had deliberately not taken part in any decisions relating to Robinson. However, he had not declared the loan in the Register of Members' Interests and resigned in December 1998”.

And the controversies just kept on coming. “During the 2009 expenses scandal The Daily Telegraph raised questions about the timing of Mandelson's second home allowance claim, dating from 2004 … On 22 April 2005 The Times revealed that Mandelson had spent the previous New Year's Eve on the yacht of Paul Allen, the co-founder of Microsoft, which was at the centre of a major EU investigation”. And there was more.
“In October 2008 Mandelson was reported to have maintained private contacts over several years with Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska”. Deripaska has just been sanctioned by the UK Government. Oh, and “In 2015 it was revealed that Peter Mandelson appears in Jeffrey Epstein's contacts book”. The Mail has already run a smear piece on that link.
That is why the Tories and their pals will be exceedingly comfortable if Mandelson is close to the Labour leadership. The dirty tricks can, and will, get much, much dirtier.

Where's the problem?
Mandelson is a treacherous red tory gobshite.
So are the Starmer Quisling gang of chinless apologists.
Therefore a logical combination. One of the reasons this is a fucked-over country of too many wilfully ignorant mugs.
And this loan of £373,000? Were the mortgage lenders informed of this?
Still he must have been confident that the government of which he was a member would do nothing to curb house price inflation.
Seems Tom, you have forgotten the real danger, Mandy's friendship with one convicted paedophile+ the now dead Jeffrey Epstein, Mandelson is photographed with Epstein in 2005, alleged to have phoned him when Epstein was in jail.
Mandy along with Blair & Campbell feature in the Epstein/Maxwell little black book, comvientlely available online for cross reference.
Lord Voldemort ^w Mandelslime is one of the few people from the Labour Party’s recent history who is even more tainted than Mister Tony Blair and I should strongly counsel Sir Keeves to run a fucking mile rather than have anything to do with him.
If Starmer really wants to show he's a new broom that has nothing to do with the Corbyn era, that really must also apply to the Blair era - and Mandelson should be at the top of that list of People To Ignore.
