Have you seen our politicians over the last few years. Boris was caught hungover in an airport on his way back from meeting a known russian spy - he still became the highest politician in the land.
You know my opinion of Boris Johnson so I have absolutely no idea why you'd bring him up. Mandelson is in the exact same category of Johnson though in terms of his past dealings and friends he's kept, need a remind you of his close personal links to Russian oligarchs in Putin's inner circle?

If you want to pick on him because he doesn't fit with your politics at least be honest. Paedophiles take the finest of people in don't they, just look at the CofE the Catholic church, institutions that support children all infected by these awful people who know exactly how to inviegle themselves.
Be honest about what? Mandelson is one of the slimiest and corrupt politicians of the modern era and this is the third Labour PM he's made to look a fool for trusting him. Starmer was an idiot for making him an ambassador, made to look a complete fool yesterday because of it and is going to look even stupider every passing day he's not binned off, except now because of his stupidity he's risking pissing off Trump by lending credibility to the leaks that Murdoch's rags are putting out.
