They've not spoken on the phone yet. Once that occurs, expect some news on the next steps.

Seems Boris backed the wrong horse in the US election.
The EU will the priority for them now.
'Boris who ? ' will be the answer when he makes his grovelling call to the new President.

Boris's weakness (well one of them) is the label of British Trump. He needs to turn this into a strength and call Trump who has not been seen since Thursday's 17-minute demented ramble and tell him to lay off the straw-clutching court cases and spin him a yarn about this impeding his 2024 re-election chances.
But I also doubt Trump will listen. And I suspect the President Elect will be "Biden" his time to speak to Boris until he's at least spoken to Micheál Martin, Angela Merkel, and Emmanuel Macron.

Yes I'm sure he'll do that Andrew ! Trump would ignore him anyway. Boris was a little 'mini me' on the other side of pond that he could combine with a golfing/Buck Palace trip.
Farage has gone very quiet maybe he's the man to tell the President ? Best of luck Nigel.

I don't think Biden will have much say in things, all the clever eyes & ears will be on the VP, Ms Kamala Harris . . . President withing 6 months

It would be kind for the President to go visit Trump in his new residence and feed him.

To be fair when the new president looks in the mirror he says "Joe who". I've never really got the fascination with the US deal, they were never going to give us one quickly or even at all regardless of who was in charge, it's not a priority for democrats and while donny might not include NHS access in it he was never going to let American farmers miss out on the opportunity of selling their unlabled crap to unsuspecting people over here

Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20
These things aren't decided by how much the President likes you but the strength of both countries in those agreements and the corporate interests pushing on their respective Governments.
Biden and the House of Representatives will be looking out for the United States. Trump wouldn't have been any different.
I personally still think Biden is better for the Tories because he is more predictable. He'll leave most of it to his advisors, he won't suddenly have a change of heart about something and risk the existing talks, he won't spout off on Twitter.
And putting aside Brexit Biden is more in tune with the Government on most other things. They are likely to be more aligned on most foreign policy and their approaches on the Security Council and the G7. More sceptical of Russia. Pro-NATO. He'll rejoin the Paris accords.
Simply put he is more likely to be more engaged with the rest of the world and an America which is more engaged with the rest of the world is better for Britain.

I think you mean 2025. It's Biden from 2021-2024.
