Mandelson pees in street – but why is no one questioning his pedo friends?

Kensington and Chelsea Council are investigating disgraced US ambassador Peter Mandelson for pissing in the street.

According to Politics Home, someone photographed Mandelson:

relieving himself against a garden wall in Notting Hill shortly before 11pm on Wednesday night, having just left the home of former Conservative chancellor George Osborne.

The council is looking into whether an “offence took place”.

Taking the piss

Public urination is not a specific crime under national law. However, some local councils have bylaws which prohibit urination and are punishable by a fixed penalty notice. For example, in Camden, the standard fine is £120. However, authorities have the ability to issue an unlimited fine.

Kensington and Chelsea Council confirmed that the maximum fine within its local authority is £300, reduced to £150 if paid within 14 days.

Mandelson told the Daily Mail:

I can only offer my profuse apologies. I was stood up by two Uber drivers and kept waiting in the street for half an hour and was bursting. There is no disguising my embarrassment

As usual with rich and powerful men, he’s only apologising because someone caught him in the act.

But maybe someone should also be investigating his links to pedophile and rape trafficker, Epstein:

The images of Mandelson appeared only hours after the Democrats published 20,000 documents, which they subpoenaed from Epstein’s estate. The files mention Mandelson 37 times.

Did Mandelson think getting his knob out in public would distract us from his pedophile friends?

The emails revealed that Epstein remained friends with and in contact with Mandelson until late 2016. That’s eight years after he pleaded guilty to child abuse offences.

It’s strange that he had the nerve to warn Epstein to stay away from Prince Andrew, but he didn’t think he should stop hanging out with Epstein.

The Royal family removed Andrew’s titles due to his ties to Epstein, while Keir Starmer fired Mandelson as the UK’s ambassador to the US.

In one birthday card, Mandelson referred to Epstein as his ‘best pal’.

However, Mandelson still sits in the House of Lords, with his title. I wonder why that is? Perhaps it’s his ties to Morgan McSweeney?

Double standards

Our political and legal class seem to be okay with Mandelson mixing with pedos, yet draws the line at him pissing in public.

What does it say about our country and legal system when a man who is photographed in his dressing gown with a convicted pedophile, and who stayed in contact with him for eight years after his conviction, is allowed to sit in the House of Lords and retain his title? Yet, the same man faces a fine simply for urinating in public.

What does this say about our country’s priorities? The people in power seem far more concerned about protecting our streets from piss than the far more important issue of allowing a pedophiles associates to sit in a position of power and make decisions that will affect all of us.
