Has Mandelson learnt anything at all from the reaction to his inclusion in the latest files relating to paedophile sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein? No.
Ian Hislop, editor of Private Eye, appeared on Tonight with Andrew Marr to discuss how Mandelson has sought, at every turn, to brazen out the crisis
