the simple truth is that there were many songs this year that were better than the uk entry, so even before politics enters into it, we were going to be well down the list. Having caused an almighty mess with the EU over brexit, those countries would mark us down on principle, and then our vocal support for Israel, just saw off the rest of potential voters.

I also didn't think his performance was very strong on the night, there were worse for sure, but there were also a lot that nailed their vocals, and he just didn't

I haven't watched Eurovision since Terry Wogan, and even in his day I stopped watching it a long time ago.

It's always been political & a big joke, it's just gotten worse over the years . If they've introduced judges now ...then that will likely just make it more bias in ways.

Even when Ukraine won with the UK finishing behind, it was obvious why that was. Sam Ryder could have been out of tune ,and dressed as a telly tubby and it probably would have been the same result .

juries have been a part of the show since the first year. It's only in recent years they included the public vote because everyone said the juries were crap. So, it's nothing new

I mean have you seen who was on ours - louise redknapp and 4 other BBC woke picks

f me sideways

they gave Israel zero whilts the UK public gave it 12

No one who knows anything about music would give it zero

it was 100% a woke leftist "lets do what the cool kiz are doing" political ant-Jewish vote

Missed it last night so just been catching up. I do think the Israeli woman is incredibly brave to have carried out performances all week in the face of such hostility and seemingly without putting a foot wrong or ever showing any signs of the immense pressure she was under. It's actually quite inspirational and she genuinely delivered a really good performance

Armenia was my favourite though

The racy looking blonde was fine but the other one looked to have a brush stuck down the back of her dress .. so stiff and wooden with zero charisma
