Will Mandelson be stripped of his life peerage by PM?
The Independent
|September 16, 2025
Such a move might be politically useful for Keir Starmer but, as Sean O'Grady explains, the hurdles would be considerable
Peter Mandelson has had his share of ups and downs in public life, but his latest gyration is surely the most dramatic.
Popping in and out of government is one thing. But vaulting from private lobbyist to the palatial splendour of the Washington embassy and then back down to the status of political pariah - all in less than a year - has few parallels anywhere. How low can Mandelson go? It's a matter for debate...
What's next for Mandelson?
Who knows? There are calls, including from some in his own party, for Baron Mandelson of Foy in the County of Herefordshire and of Hartlepool in the County of Durham to be stripped of his peerage, awarded to him in 2008 on one of his returns to the cabinet.
Could Mandelson lose his peerage?
