AdvertisementEmmanuel Macron has raised eyebrows by being 'all over' Joe Biden at the G7 summit in defiance of social distancing rules. Mr Biden - who has had two jabs of the Pfizer vaccine - seemed unperturbed by Mr Macron getting up close and personal. The row is set to dominate the PM's meetings with Mr Macron, Mrs Merkel and Mrs von der Leyen today. Mr Macron tweeted in a pointed remark: 'As always, the same union, the same determination to act, the same enthusiasm.' EU leaders had been hoping that US President Joe Biden would pressure the PM to back down in order to avoid increasing tensions in Northern Ireland.
