Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Leader of the Conservative Party, has always been controversial but he raised the volume last week when he suggested that the best way to unite Europe was by recreating the Roman Empire.
His vision of the Roman Empire in the 21st century is based on a partnership that included Turkey and the North African states. At the NATO summit in Madrid last month, he told replrters that this would be based on the Mare Nostrum, the Latin term for the Mediterranean Sea.
It is interesting to note that 19th-century Italian nationalist fascists used the term to describe Italy as the successor state to the Roman Empire. The term was again taken up by Benito Mussolini for use in fascist propaganda, in a similar manner to Adolf Hitler’s lebensraum system of colonialism.
Johnson’s plan was in contrast to the ‘European Political Community’ presented by France’s President Emmanuel Macron to the European Parliament on May 9. This community would allow the EU to force closer ties with non-members, such as the UK and the nations of the western Balkans.

And, like the Roman Empire itself, the entire system will collapse in upon itself - leading to another Dark Ages that will take centuries to recover from.
But then maybe that’s the whole idea.
Isn’t that the EU?
Same thing from another source:

Western countries are preparing to launch a diplomatic charm offensive to win over developing nations to Ukraine’s side ahead of the G20 summit later this year.
European powers also hope to build closer links with the Middle East and North Africa through what Boris Johnson has described as a partial recreation of the Roman Empire.
There have been fears that the G20 gathering in Bali this autumn could be derailed if Vladimir Putin decides to attend, forcing Western leaders to decide between boycotting the summit and sitting round the table with the Russian President.
Perhaps someone should remind Boris Johnson that the original Roman Empire fell to violent barbarian hordes, and so the Dark Ages began.
I dunno. Maybe Boris wants a repeat. After all, the Dark Ages were environmentally friendly. No nasty gasoline engines, or anything like that.
Prophetic.
This time it will be like iron mixed with clay and will be destroyed by the Rock that will fill the whole earth.
Wait. Wasn’t Putin supposed to cancer ridden and on his deathbed? Hasn’t everyone read the DailyMail?

It’s amazing to watch the development of prophesy. It’s all around us ready to be fulfilled. Kind of exciting! Please add me on your ping list.
Such depravity is ubiquitous in today's world:
the obscene show-trial going on,So far, our society has matched the depravity of decadent Rome with no end in sight to the inexorable descent into the quagmire of depravity!
open borders,
human excrement and drug paraphernalia littering city streets,
rampant crime,
inflation,
stolen elections,
the Trannie Army,
political prisoners,
contempt for truth,
etc.--
Who can save us? Only we ourselves!
Both Johnson and Macron need to be booted.
All of Europe nneds more free cooperation and less coerced and mandated “coordination”. The more Europeans lose the freedom to peacefully disagree, you know the ability to mandate and require agreement will increase.
Boris the Turk Toff needs a comb and a new job.
There was lots of good stuff about Rome, too bad they hated Christians.
Boris Johnson is an expert extraordinaire on the Greco-Roman era. Most US politicians know less about this subject than Boris’ shoelaces.
That looks like a very sturdy rig meant for traveling over rough roads if need be.
According to the article that's pretty much what he said:
“When the Roman empire fell, it was largely as a result of uncontrolled immigration,” Johnson said in an interview at the G-20 in Italy. “The empire could no longer control its borders, people came in from the east, all over the place, and we went into a dark ages, Europe went into a dark ages that lasted a very long time. The point of that is to say it can happen again. People should not be so conceited as to imagine that history is a one-way ratchet.”
