According to the Guardian and Radio News Hub, Number 10s Friday readout confirmed Starmer only learned Tuesday that Mandelson failed security vetting for his US ambassador role, despite Foreign Office clearance back in January 2025a staggering lapse that has him absolutely furious and facing Monday's House of Commons grilling.

In a power play today, The European reveals Starmer summoned Meta, Snap, Google, TikTok, and X execs to Downing Street, warning looking the other way is not an option on child online safety, hinting at teen access curbs while experts caution bans could backfire.
