Ahead of G20 meeting, PM warns of ‘difficult geopolitical events’ echoing those that ended Roman empire

Speaking before the start of a gathering of leaders from the G20 industrialised nations in Rome, where he will push for countries to arrive in Glasgow with fixed plans to cut emissions, Johnson said the chances of success hung in the balance.
