World leaders including Joe Biden, Boris Johnson, Angela Merkel and Justin Trudeau engaged in dinner-time diplomacy on Monday evening as they joined hundreds for the biggest gathering of Government representatives since the birth of the United Nations - ahead of the last 'full' day of the COP26 summit today.

The congregation of leaders appeared in high spirits as they put disagreements on hold and capped off the first day at the COP26 climate conference with a lavish royal reception at Glasgow's Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum with Prince Charles, Prince William, Kate Middleton and the Duchess of Cornwall.

During the night the Prime Minister, who hosted the evening at the recently renovated gallery, told leaders the summit was 'quite an extraordinary historic event' and it was even more important because 'we face nothing less than a mortal threat to our planet and to our civilisation'.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who hosted the event, arrived from the nearby summit venue with other guests on an electric bus after a day of opening speeches.

Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon was also among those attending the Kelvingrove event.

About 25,000 delegates are attending the two-week summit, and thousands of activists have also travelled to Scotland's biggest city for fringe events and protests.
