flag UK PM Keir Starmer faces political crisis after Prince Andrew's arrest linked to Epstein scandal, amid backlash over appointing Peter Mandelson despite his past ties.

flag On February 19, 2026, British media figures Piers Morgan and Nile Gardiner claimed that UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer faces imminent political collapse due to fallout from the arrest of former Prince Andrew over misconduct linked to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. flag They cited Starmer’s appointment of Peter Mandelson—despite knowing of Mandelson’s past ties to Epstein—as a major liability, with multiple resignations and public backlash undermining confidence in the government. flag Both commentators predicted severe electoral consequences in May’s local elections and warned of lasting damage to Starmer’s leadership and the monarchy’s standing, though no official details about charges or legal proceedings were confirmed.
