Hello, you through to Chris Mason's voicemail.

Thanks for calling.

I am busy making any questions and newscast and endless documentaries about Yorkshire all available

on BBC sounds. Oh and being a political correspondent too. Leave me a message after the town and I'll probably never get around to ringing your back. Bye.

Chris Mason, only you could have your voicemail message as an advert for your many, many programs.

Anyway, I'm just calling to find out if you've had a call from Joe Biden

because he's hit the phones today.

He spoke to Emmanuel Macron, Angela Merkel,

Michael, Michael Martin of Ireland, but first in the queue in Europe was Boris Johnson.

They spoke for about 20, 25 minutes and it sounds like the whole conversation was about all the stuff they've got in common, like promoting global trade, fighting climate change, making sure

NATO is strong and providing lots of security in the world. And sounds like the President-elect's been invited

to the UK twice next year.

Boris Johnson said, why don't you come along

to the climate conference, the UN Climate Conference

in Glasgow,

as well as coming for the G7 summit in the summer,

which is going to be in the UK.

And I suppose this is maybe a poke in the eye

for all the people that said, oh, Boris Johnson and Joe Biden don't get on.

Oh, Brexit's going to make things very tricky.

Oh, the fact that Boris Johnson was quite friendly with Trump is going to ruin his relationship with Biden because well all it took
