Eurovision final here we come!!

[Capt Pat]

After years of failure Ireland finish 6th which is good. The Croats won the popular vote I think. The Swiss got too much of the jury votes to overcome.

So we're basically Man United, used to be good and win it several times but now finish outside the Top 4.

Israel considered the most hated country in Eurovision... yet ended up with one of the highest volume of public votes.

Your daily reminder that social media is not an accurate reflection of reality.

I'd say it's simple really, big Jewish vote came out from other countries across Europe. Absolute farce but thankfully they weren't able to corrupt the results

Because you can vote for Israel, you cannot vote against Israel.

How did they manipulate the public vote, by hook and by crook I assume.

People who wanted to support Israel made an effort and used their phone.

That's the thing about the Jews, they secretly run all the song writing competitions.

Supposedly this was expected as a lot of regular Eurovision fans refused to vote in it. Would be interesting to see total votes cast from last year to this year

I know social media isn't real but a lot of the bots and pro-Israel accounts are really attacking Bambie Thug. Essentially is this what we are exposing our poor kids to?

Of course, 'won't someone think of the children!' doesn't extend to the ones in Gaza...

That's that for another year...

Well if Michael Martin and RTE were in favor of Bambi Thug, a certain proportion of the population were always going to do the exact opposite
