The UK press has focused on the controversy surrounding Lord Peter Mandelson's appointment as British ambassador to the US after he was found to have failed vetting for the role. Former Foreign Office boss, Sir Olly Robbins, was sacked last week after it emerged he had cleared Lord Mandelson to take up the role without telling Sir Keir Starmer about security concerns. The Times reports that Starmer is "on the ropes" after an appearance in Parliament where he accused Downing St of exerting "constant pressure" on officials to approve the appointment. The Metro reports that No 10 wanted an ambassador role for "another lord sacked over links to sex offender". Meanwhile, the news of the US extending the Iran ceasefire hours before deadline led to calls for more stringent measures against Iran.
