We very much lack a transparency.

in the UK that you have here in the States.

A lot of our investigations, all of them, are done behind closed doors.

It's only when the police may feel they can issue a statement that they will, or when the royal family will issue a statement, or the government will issue a statement.

We did have an emergency statement this afternoon from Darren Jones.

He's the Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister, and he basically said we are going to cooperate with the police in

As the government, we're going to cooperate in both of these investigations into Mandelson and into Prince Andrew.

And at the moment, it's very difficult to know what will happen next in relation to these two individuals.

The welcome reception for the new British ambassador in D.C.

This is the official welcome of, if you like, the new Peter Mandelson.

Of course, he would absolutely dispute that they have anything in common.

He's an apolitical appointment, but it's an important job in this town.

And of course, events may be slightly overshadowed by the arrest of Lord Mandelson, former Lord Mandelson, because of course he's lost that title.

This potential bomb was coming over the horizon for the prime minister.

I don't know how he thought he could get away with it.

So the royal family have been very quiet on the Epstein scandal, despite the fact that the king's brother, Andrew, until recently, Prince Andrew, is so closely related to the Epstein Island events.

He's all over the Epstein files with his now ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, famously Fergie in the 90s, early 2000s, the redhead everyone remembers.

Some of their interactions with Epstein just display them as being greedy, opportunistic.

really having no moral compass whatsoever.

So that inevitably reflects badly on the royal family because Andrew was apparently the Queen's favourite son.
