As US President Joe Biden appeared to take a nap during the UN climate summit, pictures appeared of UK PM Johnson also nodding off.
UK PM Boris Johnson was seated next to UN chief António Guterres. The British prime minister was seen seated without his mask.
#JeremyVine: “Look at this 78 year old man nodding off for 30 seconds, it’s a disgrace!”
“Yeah, ok this 57 year old did something similar but it’s easier to hold Biden to account than it is our actual PM” pic.twitter.com/ymyeVv8qaX — David (@Zero_4) November 2, 2021
Its a measure of the Britsh Television media that they were ALL able to show Biden nodding off but not one of them showed Johnsons nap. No mention of it at all.
Make no mistake the British establishment class sadly preferred Trumps Republicans to @JoeBiden 's democrats. https://t.co/mhFGSyaw1Z — Future (@UseBy2022) November 2, 2021

Joe Biden nodding off on the job - well done to the aide who has to wake him up, remind him what he’s doing, etc pic.twitter.com/fuxIY1IAU4 — Rupert Myers (@RupertMyers) November 1, 2021
The US president was seen calmly taking a nap with his arms folded as the UNclimate change conference was underway.
In a dramatic gesture, Biden apologised forthe Trump administration's decision to pull the United States out of the Paris Accord.
"I guess I shouldn't apologise but I do apologise for the fact that the United States in the last administration pulled out of the Paris Accords and put us sort of behind the eight ball a little bit."
Biden during his speech had said the US will provide "hopefully leading by the power of example" while asserting that his administration was "working overtime" to ensure climate change goals weremet.
