We were placed last by the following juries:
- Israel
- Croatia
- Iceland

We were voted last by the following televotes:
- Austria
- Belgium
- Bulgaria
- Czechia
- France
- Georgia
- Israel
- Italy
- Moldova
- Poland
- Portugal
- Russia
- Sweden
- Switzerland

Poland were the closest to giving us a point... we finished 11th in their jury vote

This effectively dismisses the "political voting" theory. We've not exactly got problems with Sweden, Switzerland, Italy, etc. Even Australia, the land full of our ex-pats, put us 20th in juries and 21st in the televote. We just had a bad song, performed terribly, staged boringly, surrounded by far better competition.
I don't understand how it's possible that people can't see how bad the UK entry was .
