It is not a political arena, but that won't stop the shouting. They've never withdrawn before in the face of other countries with less than great records, so why now? This is in no way a diminishing of what is happening in Gaza, which is a horrible crime.

I’ve got a bridge to sell anyone who thinks Eurovision isn’t political 
The country boycotting eurovision while we’re still charging protestors for the same cause with terrorism seems a bit daft tbh.

Bit too close to Israel winning for comfort though.

Hey Mum, just 1 point.
I used to watch his YT channel. Nice guy, but we (well, the BBC) just can't see to pick a winner for shit nowadays.

With the little I'd heard about the UK entry I was hoping less Baddiel and Skinner and more Daði og Gagnamagnið
