We all know Ukraine have done so well because of the war. It would have been nice if all the songs could get votes on merit not sympsthy. Otherwise what's the point?

Putin cost us a Eurovision victory!

the80sweregreat · 15/05/2022 00:06

That Ukrainian singer hidden by a carpet has got to be President zelensky…

It could be. He aint afraid of getting in there.

Shmithecat2 · 15/05/2022 00:06

I'm pleased for Ukraine BUT annoyed at the same time. We won in reality, lost to a sympathy vote.

Come on don't be bitter, it's only a song contest, Europe has chosen to show solidarity and that's amazing.

MrsLargeEmbodied · 15/05/2022 00:07

Amazing, fantastic results

This changes everything for the UK and Eurovision. It proves we CAN win, if we have a good song.

We CAN NOT blame our shit score on political voting.

Definitely!

Yep. It was political. (Checks how France voted... )

The point? Many things in life are more important than winning because of merit.

People are so bitter 🙄, second is amazing.

AngeloMysterioso · 15/05/2022 00:07

Interesting that our second highest vote went to Poland… I can’t even remember what their song was?!

BringBackCoffeeCreams · 15/05/2022 00:07

AlecTrevelyan006 · 15/05/2022 00:02

basically we won

No we didn't. Ukraine won. Their song was fab, the youngsters loved it. Don't take the shine off their win by making out they didn't earn it.

howler21 · 15/05/2022 00:07

So it quite literally is Putin’s fault that we lost

LINABE · 15/05/2022 00:08

The point is European unity and cooperation and peace. That's the WHOLE POINT of the competition

Ukraine 🇺🇦 all the way!

Even if the ruskies fuck off tomorrow, Ukraine will still be in a right state next year, so I guess we host it?

If someone had told me we would be second in this years Eurovision, six months ago, I would have been SOOOOO SOOOO Happy.

So yeah this is great.

I love how Rylan has made it to the Green Room!

I love the way Graham said it was because he'd flashed his teeth.
