Well the voting is one of the highlights of the whole shambles that is Eurovision, some bored University Proffessor with too much time and a fine collection of toe nail clippings has carried out research and announced that there is no political voting.....absolute bollocks my bearded friend, since the damn thing began the voting has been political. Here we present a breakdown of where the votes go politically.
Uk and Ireland usually exchange a flurry of votes, probably they feel some sympathy for the Uk, who seem to be the Milwall of Europe, No one likes us..... The French hate us because we constantly accuse them of being yellow bellied surrender monkeys... The Germans are not keen, Two world wars and one world cup is a constant theme. Our Government is not popular across Europe so hence we get a bad press and precious few votes....so our song has to be top notch to win, so no win this year then.
Now the Viking empire is alive and well, as the voting progress's you will see the Viking influence come to the fore, Denmark, Sweden, Iceland, Finland and Norway like to help each other out.
Greece and Cyrpus do tend to exchange douze points and for some reason ignore Turkey.
These days you will find the Balkan and Warsaw Pact Factor looming large over the contest, the voting here makes it realistic that only former Eastern Bloc countries have any chance of winning this contest, Expect the points to be heavy amongst this lot, and this little bunch will explain why Ukraine, Belarus and Serbia are favourites for this years contest.
So Eurovision is not Political? My arse........
Ps France will never win as long as they insist on singing in French and entering the same old cack every year.
