For the record Peter Mandelson, Baron Mandelson of Foy, took part in 6 #Bilderberg Meetings between 1999 and 2014. The first time was as a Labour MP and that year his travel and accommodation expenses had been covered by the organisers: https://t.co/dLcrma5FrU
Incidentally, the Epstein Files contain one or two exchanges between Peter Mandelson and Jeffrey Epstein in which Bilderberg is mentioned.
The current British Deputy Prime Minister, David Lammy, cited in the article, participated in the Bilderberg Conferences of 2022, 2023, and 2026.
His first appearance was funded by Newbridge Advisory, chaired by Bilderberg Steering Committee member Sir John Sawers, when he was an opposition member of parliament. https://t.co/XQ3p64ODak
REVEALED: MANDELSON FAILED VETTING BUT FOREIGN OFFICE OVERRULED DECISION
"Peter Mandelson failed his security vetting clearance but the decision was overruled by the Foreign Office to ensure he could take up his post as ambassador to the US, an investigation by the Guardian can reveal.
According to multiple sources, Mandelson was initially denied clearance in late January 2025 after a developed vetting process, a highly confidential background check by security officials.
Keir Starmer had by then announced he would be making Mandelson the UK’s chief diplomat in Washington, posing a dilemma for officials at the Foreign Office, who decided to use a rarely used authority to override the recommendation from security officials.
Mandelson’s failure to secure vetting approval has not previously been publicly revealed, despite intense scrutiny over his appointment and the release by the government of 147 pages of documents supposed to shed light on the case.
Downing Street released a statement late on Thursday confirming the Guardian’s story. It stressed the prime minister had no knowledge that security officials advised Mandelson should not be given clearance, and said responsibility lay with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO).
“The decision to grant developed vetting to Peter Mandelson against the recommendation of UK Security Vetting [UKSV] was taken by officials in the FCDO,” a government spokesperson said.
“Neither the prime minister, nor any government minister, was aware that Peter Mandelson was granted developed vetting against the advice of UK Security Vetting until earlier this week.
(...) It is not known who in the Foreign Office made the decision to overrule UKSV. Sir Olly Robbins, the current permanent secretary in the Foreign Office, was the department’s top civil servant in late January 2025 when the decision was made, having taken up the role earlier that month. The foreign secretary was David Lammy, who is now the deputy prime minister..."

Just threatened with arrest for standing outside Bilderberg and filming. Man in a suit who won’t identify himself says he doesn’t care about the First Amendment, and he’ll have law enforcement take me away.
