Strip Lord Peter Mandelson of Ġieħ ir-Repubblika

The Tony Blair Guru, Peter Mandelson, has been outed in the Epstein emails. He is accused of passing on sensitive government information to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Lord Mandelson was sacked from his position as Ambassador to the USA last September when further details about his relationship with Epstein were made public.

Last Sunday, he also resigned his Labour membership after four decades as one of the leading figures in the party.

And now he has had to resign from the House of Lords.

In 2016, with the intention to curry favour with EU leaders, Joseph Muscat bestowed Ġieħ ir- Repubblika on Mandelson.

Arnold Cassola stated ‘Now that we know what backroom deals Mandelson was involved in, Momentum shall be writing to the Ġieħ ir-Repubblika committee to strip Mandelson of the honour which Joseph Muscat had decided to bestow upon him. Malta must exercise significantly greater due diligence when conferring state honours to ensure recipients are of unimpeachable character.”

Lord Peter Mandelson għandu jitneżża’ minn Ġieħ ir-Repubblika

Isem it-Tony Blair Guru, Peter Mandelson, jidher fl-emails ta’ Epstein. Huwa akkużat li għadda informazzjoni sensittiva tal-gvern lil Jeffrey Epstein, trażgressur sessswali misjub ħati.

Lord Mandelson tkeċċa mill-pożizzjoni tiegħu bħala Ambaxxatur għall-Istati Uniti f’Settembru li għadda meta aktar dettalji dwar ir-relazzjoni tiegħu ma’ Epstein saru pubbliċi.

Il-Ħadd li għadda Mandelson irriżenja wkoll mis-sħubija tiegħu fil-Partit Laburista wara erba’ deċennji bħala wieħed mill-figuri ewlenin fil-partit f’pajjiżu.

U issa kellu jirriżenja mill-House of Lords tar-Renju Unit.

Fl-2016 Joseph Muscat ta Ġieħ ir-Repubblika lil Mandelson bl-intenzjoni li jitħabbeb mal-mexxejja tal-UE.

Arnold Cassola ddikjara, “Issa nafu Mandelson f’liema qerq moħbi kien involut. Momentum għandu jikteb lill-kumitat ta’ Ġieħ ir-Repubblika sabiex iċaħħad lil Mandelson mill-unur li Joseph Muscat kien iddeċieda li jagħtih. Malta trid teżerċita diliġenza dovuta ferm akbar meta tagħti unuri tal-Istat biex tiżgura li r-riċevituri jkunu ta’ karattru inkontestabbli.”
