Isn't it about time that the UK pulled out of Eurovision?

Question

It seems to me that we just give credibility to this ludicrous yearly event.

Answer 1

UK shouldn't bother entering as even if their song was the best - they will NEVER win. Last night's song did not deserve to be last but unfortunately the voting system works against UK - Balkan countries vote for each other as do countries surrounding Russia - Also the amount of people who have left their Balkan countries etc and live in other European countries (many in UK) will vote for their homeland - as do students from Greece (loads of them) in UK.

So there you go - save yourself UK don't bother entering - where music is concerned  ... UK is a billion lightyears ahead of all the other countries taking part - Lets just stick with day to day music and not Eurovision!

Answer 2

Yes, we should.

In fact, all of Western Europe should.

Since when is Israel a part of Europe?

Last time I checked it was in the Middel East!!

Answer 3

I agree....even I could guess which way each country was going to vote...the iron curtain countries stuck together, as did the Baltic states and the Scandinavians...what a farce!!!

Answer 4

yes, we should, as it no longer a fair contest, its now all Political voting.

But the Russian Song was good

Answer 5

No, I think the UK should remain in it

Answer 6

no, but Israel should be expelled

Answer 7

I couldnt care less lol, the 3 big super powers(pretty much west europe) in Europe did rubbish! lol

Answer 8

I couldn't care less actually, it's all fixed - People vote for the country instead of it's talent and at the moment we aren't very popular!!

Answer 9

I think it should be dropped all together.  All the third-class songs sound the same - bland pop - according to the location of the countries, and some acts are really silly.

As for the political voting, after all Terry Wogan's wittering on about it, what does Ireland do?  Vote for the UK!!!

I only liked the Croatian song; it was different and had a flavour of its nation.

How sad that I watched it - while making dinner, going to the bathroom, nipping out for a pint of milk...

Answer 10

lol you are so just annoyed that the UK keep loosing, who cares? it is only a Eurovision.

Answer 11

Am I the only one annoyed that these tiny Eastern countries have the same voting power as big ones. "Serbia+Montenegro" are now "Serbia" and "Montenegro" so that tiny country that is 2 now has double the voting power that it once had with the same number of people. And you know they'll just vote for each other.
