The UK Came Last

May 16, 2026 6:14pm CST
Eurovision song contest. The UK entrant, some English guy excelled and did us all so proud, and came last. Bulgaria won thank god. Lovely girl called Dara The alternative at the end was unthinkable and unpalatable and thankfully didn't happen - Israel isnt even in Europe and shouldn't even be in the competition. On that note neither is Australia but hey, everyone likes a bit of Delta Goodrem. But the UK guy got one point, Dara for Bulgaria got over 500. In other news I cooked a curry And Yvonne cooked Chicken Pakora and a Glasgow Pink Pakora Sauce Yum,

Why were countries in there that are not in Europe? Did the rules change?

As Delta is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet, she was perfectly placed.

I was very upset and disgusted by the fact they let Israel compete, they are not part of Europe. It's always all about politics.

@Ineeddentures Now they talk incriminating Putin, a Nuremeberg style tribunal. Why Putin and not Benjamin Netanyahu? He is far more criminal than Putin. Why is the world protecting this criminal?

We were lucky to come last. That’s how bad the song (was it a song?) was. I didn’t watch it, but saw the results and the winning song. That Bulgarian girl has a great future in front of her. Delta Goodram is a great singer and should have won, but what do I know? I’m not European.

Good for the UK and congrats to Bulgaria. Now I mention the Latvian version, Latvia was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 by the song "Ena", written by Janis Jacmenkins and Liene Sturmane, and performed by Sturmane herself under her stage name Atvara. The Latvian participating broadcaster, Public Broadcasting of Latvia (LSM), organised the national final Supernova 2026 in order to select its entry for the contest.

The UK were plum last lol Yay for us. Latvia sadly never got to the grand final, the UK should not have been there, perhaps Latvia should have had our place

Oh the Bulgarian girl was really good. As for Israel, I have no idea why exceptions are made for them so often Even in Soccer World Cup they play matches in the European qualifiers And in the European Nations league as well
