Christopher Hope is joined by GB News Chief Political Correspondent Katherine Forster and Deputy Political Editor Tom Harwood to examine the growing political controversy surrounding Peter Mandelson and his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

The trio discuss the background to Mandelson’s appointment, his long-standing influence within the Labour Party, and the renewed scrutiny of his past association with Jeffrey Epstein following the release of court documents and media reporting.

The panel assesses what Keir Starmer knew during the vetting process, how the issue has escalated in Parliament, and why it has become one of the most challenging weeks of the Prime Minister's premiership.

They also look at the wider implications for government credibility, Labour Party unity, and the Prime Minister’s authority, drawing comparisons with past political crises and considering what may come next as further information is expected to be released.

Donald Trump is once again dominating the global political conversation and the consequences may reach far beyond the United States.

In this episode of Chopper’s Political Podcast on GB News, Christopher Hope examines Trump’s latest comments on Greenland, NATO and global power, and asks what they reveal about America First, US foreign policy and the future of the UK-US special relationship.

Washington strategist Gerry Dunster explains why Trump’s Greenland remarks are being taken seriously in Washington and Europe, how the US midterm elections could change Trump’s power, and why talk of NATO, impeachment and global influence is resurfacing. Is this strategic deal-making, political pressure, or something more fundamental?

Former BP chief executive Lord Browne of Madingley joins the discussion from a business and energy perspective, reflecting on Donald Trump’s leadership style, Davos, international rules, and the shifting balance between fossil fuels, green energy and net zero policy. He also addresses UK energy security, the North Sea, wind power, climate change targets and the real cost of the energy transition for households.

From global geopolitics and defence to climate policy, business confidence and economic leadership, this episode explores whether we are approaching a turning point for Trump, for NATO, and for Britain’s place in a changing world.
