Can't blame anyone for not wanting to spend money on making an effort given that the last time we went all out we barely scraped fifth. You can't blame established acts for not wanting to do it since no one with a career wants to be a joke.

Agree with this part. If we actually had to earn our way into the competition we'd be more likely to pick up support along the way.

France has proven that if you send a good act then you can do well. They normally do far worse than is but had quite a good result last night.

The UK needs to come out of the competition. Waste of money and time.

but look at what won, a total dirge that no one can even remember today

so there is not logic to it

That's not strictly true, LT. A lot of people loved that song but many hated it at the same time. It was marmite, which is the perfect thing to be in Eurovision.
