Hopefully Israel doesn't actually send a good entry, ever. They could easily win. Big losses for the betting public & betting pundits with the majority of the cash flowing into Finland and Australia until halfway through the jury reveal.

With their baked-in televotes, Ukraine could easily win next year with a jury-friendly song.

Australia being directly under the cutoff for the second year in a row.

The recap clips are approved by the delegations.

I'm personally just rooting against Sweden, but it seems like a losing battle.

Infighting!

I missed this version of Bernie. Not DNC Bernie.

I love how she keeps saying "we" as if she has any future in politics.

Miss Selzer's statement from today.

Whose idea was it to play 'Run the World (Girls)' at this Kamala concession speech.

Semi 1:

I wonder who Netherlands fans transferred their votes to. I think Croatia was the top recipient.

The UK should forget about the public & mop up the jury. Where are you, Chinese reality singing competition winner Jessie J?

Oh, just saw Sweden & Austria's songs share the same writer & producer. They do have a similar dated sound.

So, who are the UK going to send next year?

Thankfully the overrated straight men have been kept in second place once again.

Of course acts will perform and fiddle while everything burns. It's performative. If they actually cared that much, acts could have pulled out ages ago instead of releasing cop-out PR "non-statements" when criticized for their participation.

I see all the comments from the UK GP demanding they send Sam Ryder again next year.

If Australia - 15,000 km away - can top semifinals & allure juries with a delegation run by one guy with the budget of a tin can, there's no reason why Ireland can't do it too.

Oh, and that man in pink for Denmark.

Whoever from Greece sent that terrified boy scout should be locked up.

The UK should just send a strong vocalist at bare minimum.
