I mean, there’s obviously something going on. Public sentiment towards Ukraine is still strong and you still see yellow and blue flags flying but sympathy for Israel was never as strong and it’s since massively died off given how they’ve reacted. The vote is clearly not a reflection of genuine public opinion. But what’s going on, are certain people just voting loads of times?
The UK have something of a history when it comes to popular music. Quite frankly, taking Eurovision seriously is beneath us.
The UK public at large is not interested in Eurovision, beyond the camp/kitschy tv broadcast where the tradition is that the presenter basically takes the piss.
