Israel (not) banned from Eurovision Song Contest (Ed.)

Can I just say it feels bizarre posting on here when I'm 38000 feet off the ground en-route to Sydney...

Not as bizarre as the UK entry cottaging in a public toilet video.

Rylan...has plenty of craic.

Fnarr, fnarr....

Hoping it'll come last.

Israeli song sounded quite good to reach the final. It could have been a winner any other year.
Interesting to see how the 'public vote' reacts on Saturday.

They're got last place in the bag.

Who watches the Eurovision anyway.
It's a load of crap.

Doesn't really matter how good a song is .
It's all political.

Do you despise them because they are gay or because of their talents?

If there’s any despising from me, it’s against the BBC who seem intent on pushing gayness as an agenda. Read my post again.

Even Ryland has his moments.

Rylan. It’s Rylan. (Or Ross if you want to use his real name).

Olly Alexander plans to make Eurovision performance 'as gay as possible'

Olly Alexander plans to make his Eurovision 2024 performance as "as gay as possible", regardless of what prudes think.

Proud to be a prude in this case.

Norton is an excellent presenter and entertainer. The BBC are lucky to have him and he fits the Eurovision thing perfectly. Why wouldn't the BBC use talented people?

I think '06 was the year a bunch o' Lithuanians wearing pork pie hats stomped around yelling "VOTE FOR US".

Yep, agree with that. Rylan's not too bad either. The other two are just in their jobs because of their gayness. I think gays enjoy protected status at the BBC. It’s full of 'em and not in proportion with real life.

in proportion with real life

How would you know what the actual proportion in general society is, and what the proportion at the beeb is?

My eyes and common sense tells me the difference. I can guarantee to see half a dozen gays by looking and listening to the BBC each day. I see absolutely none when I walk down my street. By the BBC's reckoning, there should be half a dozen men who are good with colours and four or five dungaree wearing women in my street alone. Got any in your street?

yep - beeb seems to discriminate against straight white people. In thier bid to show that they care deeply about discrimination, they clearly discriminate.
