The Speaker of the House of Lords will meet with the Metropolitan Police on Thursday, after he was incorrectly identified as the source of information which led to Lord Peter Mandelson’s arrest.

Lord Forsyth of Drumlean was wrongly said in some media reports to have passed information to the police ahead of the former ambassador to Washington’s arrest on Monday on suspicion of misconduct in public office.

Lord Mandelson, who has been accused of passing sensitive information on to paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein during his time as business secretary, has been bailed until May.

Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle on Wednesday revealed he was the source of the information about Lord Mandelson, after media reports suggested the Met had arrested the peer because he could be a flight risk.

Speaking with The Independent's John Rentoul, Talk's Peter Cardwell says: “The law will take its course!"
