UK slacking this year wtf
I dunno; one point is better than the UK usually gets.
UK never gets many points. They've been supremely unpopular since Brexit.
Eh. Not really true. Sam Ryder came second in 2022. And the UK has generally been bad since the 2000s
Yeah, fair. Brexit really didn't help though. And for a while the UK didn't help itself by submitting objectively awful entries.
So its not about the music, its a popularity contest? Like student council president?
Pretty much, yeah.
I mean a lot of people watch it for the music, and enjoy it for that. But mostly the voting ends up following political lines.
