Foreign secretary Liz Truss' pledge to keep lobbying US officials over Anne Sacoolas trial on Harry Dunn's 22nd birthday

Foreign secretary Liz Truss pledged not to give up her attempts to get justice for Harry Dunn what would have been his 22nd birthday.

"I know how painful the anniversary of Harry’s birthday will be without justice yet being fulfilled.

"We continue to stress to our counterparts in the USA the importance of the virtual trial taking place urgently."

Radd Seiger, spokesman for Harry's family — his twin brother Niall, mum Charlotte Charles and dad Tim Dunn — tweeted a photos of Harry and Niall as kids with the message: "Not all twins walk side by side. Sometimes one has wings to fly.

"Happy birthday Niall. Happy birthday Harry. "
