>> Russia was swiftly suspended from #Eurovision and #UEFA after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Israel, despite its destruction of #Gaza and atrocities against civilians, remains in both. In Russia’s case, participation in sports and cultural events is said to be incompatible with fundamental values. With Israel, we are told that culture and sports should stay above politics, ... or even that they are antisemitic. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas says excluding Israel from Eurovision would “punish the Israeli people,” yet demands that the EU cut funding to the Venice Biennale because Russia’s participation would be “morally wrong” ...

Folks posting enthusiastically about #eurovision must be sad for having missed the 1936 olympics.
Do you ever wonder what you’d be during back then? Guess what? You’re doing it right now.

A country that commits genocide can come second in a European song contest.
And there are still people who just sit back and watch this happen.
Incomprehensible…

Sofia confirmed next year. Arena meets EBU specs (it's previously hosted JESC), transport network does not. Expect a huge influx of spending a la Estonia 2002.

Not often I'm in awe of an interval act (last time was Love Love Peace Peace) but this was absolutely excellent.
Convinced Alexander Rybak's got a portrait in the loft too.

These cover versions ain't a patch on the "Song For Eurotrash" ones from years back, although it's quite amusing watching Mr Lordi work his way through some of them.
