00:00Well, this is a big day for us today, so we've put together a parliamentary procedure called the Humble Address,
00:06which means that Parliament will have to vote on whether to release the information connected to this scandal,
00:12and it will reveal everything that Keir Starmer knew at the time he appointed Peter Mandelson to the ambassador to the US,
00:20one of the top jobs in politics, and a lot of people really were surprised by that move back then
00:27and criticised it because Mandelson has resigned twice from the Cabinet because of scandals.
00:33It was clear he knew Epstein, a convicted paedophile, before he was appointed as ambassador,
00:39so really this calls into question Keir Starmer's judgement.
00:43So what we want to do is make sure all the information that was there before Keir Starmer when he made this appointment is revealed,
00:51and then I think that might tell us a lot about why he was appointed in the first place,
00:56but it tells us an awful lot about Keir Starmer's judgement generally.
