I think that's why we always watch it. But I always laugh when contestants annually remind us that the competition is all about good music. Well, not for me it isn't. It just seems to get worse year on year. Didn't even like the winning song. Sounded like a chant you might hear in a Football ground on a Saturday afternoon.<br /><br />Of course with the show running late our own late evening BBC News with Kate Silverton ( I can't read that damn autocue.. so she gave me yet another delivery hiccup for my blooper tape). Well that bulletin came on at 12:15 Sunday morning. But twice the BBC avoided telling us that we (Britain) actually came last in the competition, preferring to say that 'Once again we didn't o very well.'<br /><br />Interestingly Huw Edwards (Annual salary...£529,000) was strangley absent all last week on the Ten O' Clock evening News. So instead we saw Clive Myrie every single night... Saturday night then Monday all the way to Friday. Don't these guys have a home domestic family life?<br />Perhaps it was his reward for his recent outlandish statement when he said on Live tv "But that would be catastrophic for Britain and the E.U if we were to crash out of Europe.'<br /><br />John....N.

I can promise you that in real life, Israel is even more beautiful, even more breathtaking and even more diverse than even this stunning footage can get across."<br /><br />P.S. A tweet from Julie Lenarz:<br /><br />"Iceland’s Eurovision BDSM band has accused Israel of apartheid - where else in the Middle East could they perform their grotesque show? Where else wave the LGBT flag into the camera? The cognitive dissonance!!!"Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741318067991857821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-63913482330357735832019-05-19T19:51:30.087+01:002019-05-19T19:51:30.087+01:00"The real winner of Eurovision was Israel:"The real winner of Eurovision was <a href="https://www.jpost.com/Opinion/The-real-winner-of-Eurovision-was-Israel-590089" rel="nofollow">Israel:</a>suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02693686958796849316noreply@blogger.com
