On February 25, 2026, former Prime Minister Gordon Brown expressed his moral outrage regarding the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, stating it is "time overdue to let in the light" on the issues surrounding Epstein's influence in politics. Brown's comments come as he delves deeper into the Epstein files, motivated in part by guilt over his previous decision to bring Peter Mandelson back into government. This development adds a layer of complexity to the ongoing scrutiny of high-profile figures linked to Epstein, including Mandelson, who was arrested on allegations of misconduct related to the case. The UK government continues to support the release of documents concerning Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's past role as a trade envoy amidst this escalating controversy.
