Sorry for being off-topic but hopefully no-one will mind. What ancient building is this, shown in Dominic Cummings's main profile photo on his new Substack account? I thought at first that might be Petra but it's probably somewhere else.

Aegina?
I think it might be Siwa.
Siwa is renowned for its universal practice of pederasty.

I disagree, we want to avoid having to play France and then one of Belgium or Italy before the final.
More chance of losing in the last 16, but winning the group is the easier route to the final.
If you want to be the best you have to beat the best.
Portugal showed the benefit of getting on the easier side of the draw. Perhaps second would be better if France also look like coming second.
Win the group we play all but one game at Wembley. People get too hung up on opponents in the last 16. If you can get home advantage you should take it.

Lots of people on both sides, but I must say Macron does seem to spend an inordinate amount of time either trolling or trying to shore up his vote with random attacks on the UK. Dude loves his undiplomatic asides.

Boos from a "large number" of fans were drowned out by "loud and prolonged applause" when England's players took the knee before their opening Euro 2020 game with Croatia at Wembley Stadium.

He's very like Trump, insulting Mexicans, Chinese etc
Was a typical Southgate team performance, slow slow slow slow, a handful of good incisive play, get the goal, back to slow slow slow. 1-0, job done. Its George Graham.

The Wuhan Institute of Virology kept live bats in cages, new footage from inside the facility has revealed, disproving denials from World Health Organisation investigators who claimed the suggestion was a “conspiracy”.
There was a times a huge amount of booing during the game, what was that all about? Just random large boos, not after a bad foul or anything.
Home fans at most of the games so far seem to be quick to whistle/boo when the opposition have the ball - is that what you mean, or was it more random?

Nothing wrong with that - especially when you consider the temperature. I was worried after the fast start that they’d burn themselves out.

Sorry for being off-topic but hopefully no-one will mind. What ancient building is this, shown in Dominic Cummings's main profile photo on his new Substack account? I thought at first that might be Petra but it's probably somewhere else.

Maybe at this point I should hope noone noticed my post saying I was thinking of going there on holiday...

Or mine, saying I’ve been!
I read one rumour in a guidebook it was a historically known for a liberal attitude to homosexuality. Nothing more sinister than that.
Can’t say I noticed anything obviously untoward while I was there.
Third set in Paris is still on serve, but Djokovic continues to be outplayed by Tsitsipas. No sign of a momentum shift - although it is now deuce on Tsitsipas' serve...

I can't claim I understand but I worry present trends are renormalising bad behaviour and disrespect in the game towards players of either side.

I was toying with adding Siwa to an Egypt itinerary for when the new Phaoronic museum opens.
I spent a few days there a while back. Had fun clinging on for dear life to the roof rack of a 4x4 as we went driving up and down the dunes.
Otherwise, nice and relaxing - a bit out of the way, though.
4 hours by bus from Marsa Matrouh, apparently, which is just past El Alamein. So doable. Would be a quiet few days escape from Alex and Cairo and the tourists in Aswan and Luxor.

Yeah, why would we want to be part of a powerful grouping that protects the interests of its members? Whinging from the sidelines is so much better.
You mean like Ireland a couple of months ago over the NI issue, or Greece a few years ago when the money ran out, or Italy when the migrants flooded in......

As best I can work out, Sunak is at around the 15th percentile in height, whereas Johnson is around 50th.
The biggest problematic aspect is that indicated by the thread header. The 90th percentile is a whopping 6 inches taller than Sunak, so 1-in-10 other men will be at least half a foot taller than him.
It shouldn't matter, but we know it does.
That said, if the next Conservative leadership election happens while there are in government it will matter a lot less than if they were in Opposition.

Just needs a sex change. That would give a whole different complexion on the contest.

Cummings has even started a company called Siwah Limited. As Giles Turner writes at Bloomberg.com, "It is unclear what Cummings’s new project will entail. Wāḥat Sīwah is the site of a legendary oracle that proclaimed Alexander the Great as the Pharaoh of Egypt."

Oh, come on.
Booing and jeering opposing players is a good part of the football pantomime. Half of the enjoyment of going to the football is that it is one of the few places permitted to shout at other people in public.

Love it. Watch this space.
The Oracle allegedly declared Alexander to be the son of the god Zeus-Ammon, and therefore divine. Does Cummings now aspire to similar status?
I thought it was an excellent start. A solid 1-0 win is exactly what you want in the opener. I wasn't that confident about us for the tournament but I am now. I think it could be coming home. ⚽ 💃

You should go to an England v. Wales match in the rugger, especially the ones in Cardiff.
The sheep botherers are quite rude and vulgar about what we English should do, particularly when it comes to where we should put the sweet chariot.
Congratulations again to England. Excellent performance against the World Cup runners up.
Away from football, is the COVID cases curve flattening out a bit?
If you look at the percentage change in the 7-day case rate then today's rate of increase is lower than yesterday's for the first time in a while. Maybe it's an inflection point. We'll see.

Mediocre performance

Better off out then….
Put Scotland away on Friday and England should escape the group stage, which is a start...
Croatia are always tough to beat.
Thoughts. And. Prayers.
Anyway, congrats to the Ingerland

Pops onto PB.
A bit of gentle masturbatory xenophobia from PB’s resident whingers.
Logs out again...

Out of interest how tall is Sunak?

I was shocked to find it is all staged rather than proper wrestling.

They were proper wrestlers, not like these fancy dan WWE lot.
Of course, we knew it would keep escalating for a while, even without the latest variant panic.
None of this means that the wheels are falling off.
