(1953–) a British politician in the Labour Party.

In 2001 he had to leave the Cabinet again after another scandal. In 2004 the Prime Minister Tony Blair made him a European commissioner. During the time when Gordon Brown was prime minister, Mandelson was given various jobs including being secretary of state for Business, Innovation and Skills. His official title is The Lord Mandelson.
