Question

The uk and ireland should boycott the eurovision, do you agree?

Answer 1

Yes, definitely!! The show has become a complete farce!! Terry Wogan is the only reason why people in the UK watch and with him planning on quitting what's the point? I would like to see 'The Big 4', who fund the competition, Germany, The UK, France and Spain pull out. I wonder how keen Russia will be to host it next year without our cash?? I did used to like Eurovision but in the words of Dustin the Turkey " Europe, where oh where did it all go wrong?"

Answer 2

Doesn't matter if Ireland pulls out because it really doesn't count. The UK, French and Germans basically pay for about 80% of the show - if they pulled out then people would sit up and take notice.

Answer 3

Oh gosh NO.  Just turn up repeatedly as the ugly ducklings taking the mickey. Dustin proved the show to be in "the  alltoghter, alltogether"  the show has no clothes

Songs are for the listening  ...AUDIO

EuroVISION is  out of it's depth  so let's give it a lift and "SEND IT UP" Next year UK to have the BAWLING BULLDOGS howling at fire engine sirens and who knows Guinness might sponsor THE TOUCAN CAN-CAN

Answer 4

Pull out and do Western Europe Vs Eastern Eurovision haha

Or we could Call in the Good old Americans...Atleast we wouldn't come last =]

Answer 5

Yeah! I think western europe should just pull out of it anyway. Its all gone to shambles. Its not eurovision SONG  contest for Europeans anymore its a pick-your-favourite-neighbouring country-to-win-vision for Eastern Europeans. Its all block voting and most of the ones that get the 10, 11, 12 points are eastern europeans with no sense of hearing.

Answer 6

No, I don't.

It's always been political but that didn't bother anyone until no one would vote for either the UK or Ireland.  Ireland is above sticking the knife in with some political voting either, we may not always give the UK the best vote but we give them something but let our feelings be known just as clearly as everyone else when the Iraq war started and the UK entry, Gemini were sent home with a duck egg

Answer 7

Yeah, I agree. I used to enjoy watching it but its not a music competition at all its just about politics. We deffinately didn't deserve to come last this year but I knew we wouldn't win of course. Its impossible for western europe. I don't think anyone was surprised at Russia coming first as half the contestants are former Russian countries or have a large Russian population.

Answer 8

After watching half an hour of last nights show it became blatently obvious it was not a talent show at all . and just a load of countries sucking up to there neighbouring countries . andy abrahams song was not that bad and reckon he should have been just in the top ten . what a crock of shite finland voting for denmark / croatia for serbia it was the worst case of **** l*****g I have ever witnessed ..... sorry but just pull out and let them get on with it

Answer 9

ye defo. its just a joke now like. although we did enter a singing turkey...hmm. but still its a waste of time tbh. x

Answer 10

Yes pull out and do an alternative version of it......
