    Curse Of The Eurovision

    I just don’t see the BBC being able to withstand the domestic calls to boycot an EBU that would be seen as bowing down to the anti Israel campaign it is facing. Olly Alexander’s views made the front page of a couple of Newspapers and this will be a far bigger story. As a big Eurovision fan as well it is very much stressing me out but mentally I am preparing for the UK to withdraw. I habe to mentally prepare for the worse as much as possible in life so I can cope.

    Ukraine won in 2016 with a propaganda song. Isreal knows if it is banned it will be able to get a few countires to withdraws with it due to political pressure in those countries. If Israel urged the BBC to withdraw Rishi Sunak would say he thinks the BBC should do so and they not likely to be able to withstand that pressure,.

    But Belarus wasn’t and is not a popular country. If Israel is suspended it will be seen as the EBU acting in an anti - Israel manner. That won’t be acceptable to many people in the UK.

    I think the UK is going to withdraw soon as Israel is heading towards suspension and I don’t think the BBC could continue to take part with the backlash suspending Israel will bring with the press and politicians.

    From what I have read before he wasn’t the most popular person on the Corrie set.

    He was an ex miner who spent a couple of decades down the mines. Ex miners don’t tend to live past life expectancy. Dennis Skinner is an exception.

    Sort of but 80% of his current seat is being kept together. Labour held Blaydon and Tory Held Durham North West are the seats really being split up.

    I think everyone knew after the stabbing incident but he never confirmed it as he stayed married to his wife.

    I wonder when the footage in that trailer was filmed. The documentary looks good so I might track it down somehow and watch it.

    Liz Truss

    The second most shocking thing from her speech today after some of the content is the god awful background they had. It made her look like a computer animation. Plus she also doesn’t even know her audience that well. She is going about the left being helped by Russia but the republicans increasingly love Russia.
