Recently released documents reveal that former President Donald Trump requested a custom red dispatch box from British Prime Minister Keir Starmer. The box, intended for transporting important documents, was to feature a gold crest and the inscription “President of the United States.” This request emerged from files related to Peter Mandelson’s appointment as U.K. ambassador to the U.S., which was mired in controversy due to Mandelson's connections with the late Jeffrey Epstein. The correspondence among British officials indicated that the box was deemed significant for Trump and was discussed in detail prior to his state visit in September 2025. However, delays in its production caused frustration, with Mandelson likening the situation to a comedic British television show. Ultimately, Trump received the box, which Mandelson later claimed made a considerable impression.
