We aren't a popular country in the EU and we don't share any borders with anyone. The winner will always be either politically motivated or it'll be simply a good song from a neutral country. We've got an unfavourable position with EU to deal with as well as resentment for automatically making the finals.

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.
