The new sanctions designations were unveiled by Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state, who called the Hague-based ICC a “corrupt and fatally politicized supranational court that has maliciously abused its authority and exceeded its mandate”, in a statement.

Prediction: Pete Hegseth will try to rename the USS Doris Miller after Trump. They’re retrofitting it with steam catapults because of Trump’s obsession (www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...), Ford class ships are usually named after presidents, and Miller was a Black war hero and Hegseth’s racist.

The memorandum gives the Pentagon leaders 60 days to come up with “a plan on the required measures to replace the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System and Advanced Weapons Elevators with steam and hydraulic systems for the construction of” the USS Doris Miller, a Ford-class aircraft carrier, which is already two years behind schedule.

The ship, named for Messman Second Class Doris Miller, is the first aircraft carrier named for both an enlisted sailor and an African American. The ship will be the second to honor Miller, who received the Navy Cross for his actions during the attack on Pearl Harbor; the first ship was USS Miller (FF-1091). It is currently the only Gerald R. Ford-class carrier to be named after a person who was not a former president.

Doris "Dorie" Miller (October 12, 1919 – November 24, 1943) was a U.S. Navy sailor who was the first black recipient of the Navy Cross and a nominee for the Medal of Honor. As a mess attendant second class aboard the battleship USS West Virginia, Miller helped carry wounded sailors to safety during the attack on Pearl Harbor. He then operated an anti-aircraft gun and, despite no prior training in gunnery, officially shot down one plane (according to Navy Department records), but Miller and other eyewitnesses claimed a range of four to six.

On Friday, Mosley told Times Radio: “What Londoners value is not being mugged, not being raped by a serving police officer and that’s really what the focus here should be … If we are going to politicise procurement in that way then we are going to compromise public safety”.

His response drew an angry response from the Labour MP Stella Creasy, who said Mosley “should be ashamed of himself”.

Dumbarton has been held by Labour’s Jackie Baillie since 1999 - one of the "class of 1999", who were elected to the Scottish Parliament at the dawn of evolution.
