A US military worker killed my son in Britain, and still we fight for justice. I’m angry that others are waiting too | Charlotte Charles

As Harry Dunn’s mother, I’ve demanded accountability. The Guardian’s discovery of other victims of US personnel shows how urgent that is

• David Lammy to ask US about case of woman strangled by US fighter in UK

When I read about the case of Sarah Steele, the woman strangled by an American pilot, I felt a familiar sickness in my stomach. It took me straight back to the day I lost my son Harry and to the months and years that followed, when the US authorities did everything they could to deny us justice. It is almost unbearable to think that another British family has now been put through the same ordeal. I thought those days were behind us following our high-profile case, and that the US military and British police had learned their lesson. Clearly not.

What happened to Sarah, as revealed by a Guardian investigation, should shame every institution that allowed her case to slip quietly into the shadows. A woman abused on British soil by an American officer. The man responsible was a guest in our country. Yet instead of a clear and confident assertion of British jurisdiction by Cambridgeshire police, the case was allowed to drift into the US system, where a male military jury acquitted him of the more serious charge. I do not know whether the outcome would have been different under our system. That is not the point. The point is that Sarah was entitled to the protection of the law of the country in which she lived.

Charlotte Charles MBE is the mother of Harry Dunn

Nearly 100 players born in France were selected for the 2026 World Cup – but only 23 play for France

It's a testament to France's success as a breeding ground for international football talent. And sometimes, France misses out on promising dual-nationality players, like Morocco's Ayyoub Bouaddi.

Citizen Vigilante review – Armie Hammer returns to obliterate the imaginary woke piñata of Europe-stan

Low-budget film-maker Uwe Boll sets Hammer up for a further fall from grace by cannibalising all manner of tired tropes in this incoherent schlocker

Oh, Armie Hammer! Has it come to this? It doesn’t seem that long since you were in the Oscar-winning film Call Me By Your Name giving a sensitive liberal performance opposite Timothée Chalamet. Now here you are, striding around the streets and public parks of Zagreb, shooting Muslims, tasering teens and topping complicit deep-state judges to protest against what your character robustly describes as an “unfriendly takeover by Islamist extremists and the blind-sided woke left”.

Much has happened to this once garlanded actor and great-grandson of oil tycoon Armand Hammer. His reputation plummeted after allegations of sexual assault by former partners in 2021, relationships that Hammer has maintained were consensual. Criminal charges were since dropped for lack of evidence, Hammer has now returned to the silver screen – and here he is in a very cheap, incoherent and embarrassingly badly acted schlocker, written, produced and directed by Germany’s low-budget exploitation maestro Uwe Boll, which cannibalises all manner of revenge tropes. More importantly, the film has been promoted and publicised globally online with monumental hypocrisy by Elon Musk who like JD Vance is very keen to divert America’s attention from its own issues to the fiercely imagined lawless migrant-caliphate of Europe-stan. It’s another piece of shit to flood the zone.

David Clayton-Thomas obituary

Singer, songwriter and frontman of the American band Blood, Sweat & Tears

It was thanks to the folk singer Judy Collins that David Clayton-Thomas, who has died aged 84, joined Blood, Sweat & Tears and helped to drive the band to the forefront of the exploding late 1960s rock scene. Clayton-Thomas, a singer and songwriter, had been performing in Toronto with his own groups, the Shays and the Bossmen, and had scored a hit with the latter band on the Canadian chart in 1966 with his anti-Vietnam war song Brain Washed.

Collins was a friend of the drummer Bobby Colomby, one of the founders of Blood, Sweat & Tears, and knew they had just lost their vocalist and keyboard player, Al Kooper. When she heard Clayton-Thomas sing at a gig in New York, she suggested him as a replacement, an inspired notion that helped to power Blood, Sweat & Tears into the big time.
