John Smith led Labour from July 1992 until his sudden heart attack death on May 12, 1994, at age 55, boosting the party to double-digit poll leads with his dry wit, Christian faith, and traditional values. He sidelined modernizers like Mandelson, earning praise as the 'best prime minister we never had' and 'last honest leader' from voices across the spectrum. The nostalgia surges now as Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who briefly appointed then sacked Mandelson as US ambassador, faces resignation calls after his chief of staff quit over the hire. While most mourn a lost era of integrity, a few question if Smith's government would have endured longer than past short-lived Labour terms.

Key Takeaway

As fresh Epstein revelations force Peter Mandelson's resignation, a post recalls John Smith—the Labour leader who kept him at arm's length during his principled 22-month tenure.
