flag UK PM Keir Starmer faces crisis after Mandelson-Epstein links, risking Labour loss in key by-election.

flag UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer faces a major political challenge in the Gorton and Denton by-election, a traditionally Labour stronghold, following revelations linking former Labour figure Peter Mandelson to Jeffrey Epstein. flag Mandelson was questioned about emails indicating that he shared sensitive information with Epstein, causing internal party turmoil, resignations, and calls for Starmer's resignation. flag The by-election, a close three-way race between Labour, Reform UK, and the Green Party, reflects rising voter dissatisfaction with Starmer's centrist policies, economic stagnation, and handling of the Israel-Gaza conflict. flag The Greens are gaining support among younger and Muslim voters who are dissatisfied with Labour's leftward shift. flag A Labour defeat would exacerbate internal divisions and jeopardise Starmer's leadership ahead of the upcoming regional elections.
