The UK's Prime Minister is facing growing questions over what he knew about Peter Mandelson's relationship with Jeffery Epstein when he appointed him as Ambassador to the US. Keir Starmer fired him after Bloomberg published a series of emails between Mandelson and the convicted paedophile.

The departure comes at a difficult time for the British government as it prepares to host a state visit for US President Donald Trump who continues to face questions about his relationship with Epstein. In this Special episode of the Daybreak Europe podcast our finance reporter Harry Wilson takes us behind the scenes of the Bloomberg scoop. He tells us what the emails reveal alongside our political correspondent Ellen Milligan who will be covering President Trump's upcoming State Visit.
