WORLD leaders from seven of the largest economies of the world met at the 45th G7 summit to discuss everything, from environmental issues to what's next for the economy.

It was Boris Johnson's first appearance on the world stage after becoming Prime Minister.

Referring to the three years of tortuous Brexit negotiations, Mr Johnson said voters and officials on both sides of the Channel wanted the issue solved.
“I think it's what the people want, I also think, by the way, it's what our friends and partners on the other side of the Channel want – they want it over.”
And in a blast at Jeremy Corbyn and ‘Remain’ rebels meeting on Tuesday to plot his downfall and ways to stop a No Deal, Mr Johnson vowed they were wrong to think they could block such an outcome.

He repeatedly refused to dismiss the idea of suspending Parliament to bypass furious MPs who have vowed to take over the Commons order paper to legislate for an extension to Brexit talks.
And he insisted: “I think this is really a matter for parliamentarians to get right ourselves.
“I think that people have just about had enough of this conversation. And I think they are yearning for a moment when Brexit comes off the front pages.
“But that can only happen when we come out of the EU on October 31.”
Boris Johnson’s largely successful first official engagement came just days after a breakthrough when German Chancellor Angela Merkel gave the UK 30 days to come up with a Plan B on the backstop.
The backstop was designed in Theresa May’s Brexit deal to tie the UK to EU customs rules indefinitely to avoid a hard border in Ireland in the event a free trade agreement can’t be hammered out with Brussels.
Senior EU sources on Monday hinted that Mr Johnson’s vow that it had to go – in a “backstopectomy” – had finally hit home in Brussels. And the PM said he believed his firm view had “landed” after talks with EU council chief Donald Tusk on Sunday.
Widely respected Brussels analyst Mujtaba Rahman said: “Outside of the noise, bluster and simplistic takes, things do seem to be moving.”
Mr Rahman, head of the Eurasia Group think tank, said: “We are increasing our probability of a deal from ten per cent to 15 per cent.
“If one does come together, senior EU officials think it will happen at or just before the October European council.”
One EU official said: “Before Boris came, our common assessment was that No Deal was the baseline.
“After the trip, I still believe No Deal is possible, but I now believe Boris wants a deal. The odds are still more on No Deal than Deal, but we shouldn’t over-egg it.”
But in a sign of the huge tensions that still exist, EU officials blasted Boris Johnson over his claims this weekend that Britain would only pay a fraction of the £39 billion divorce bill to the EU in the event of a No Deal.
European Parliament Brexit co-ordinator Guy Verhofstadt said the PM could forget about a free trade deal after a No Deal if he withheld the cash.
He stormed said: “If the UK doesn't pay what is due, the EU will not negotiate a trade deal. After a No Deal, this will be a first condition of any talks. Britain is better than this.”
