Trouble is, we have a long and complicated relationship with the rest of Europe. To some extent it doesn’t really matter what we send, because most people in mainland Europe don’t think all that highly of us. And much of that is justified in my opinion.
Our people get drunk and lairy in their holiday resorts, we very publically opted to sever ties with the EU, and historically we’ve always been quite cunty.
I’m 45, and have only ever really known our national press to mostly shit on Eurovision. They treat it like a joke, so regardless of what we send, it’s mostly seen as a joke by Europeans.
I felt terrible for our last few entrants, particularly Sam, and Olly a couple of years back. Last year’s entry was dog shit, but they still didn’t deserve no points at all. This year Sam made a genuine attempt at a song that showed a love for other European nations, and one which was a banger too, but ultimately he’s fighting against 30 years of the UK’s role in the EU sliding further and further into insignificance. And it’s a shame.
