Technically true. Although the act of union was ratified in 1707. Which joined together the island of Great Britain, as the United Kingdom.

You know, I am struggling to follow what your point is here. You here to a thread about a ridiculously bias voting in a crass music contest, and start throwing ill informed geopolitical psycho babble about something that was left on your shoulder the last time you went to the chipper!

You do know old billy was Dutch don't you!

I look forward to leaving again back to a real socialist country where people matter.


And I am sure China will welcome you with culturally open arms.

That might just be me though. it's all quiet at work and it hacking me off!!

Don't ask me, Someone let the trolls out!

All I can say. if this carries on like this much longer they will have to group it like the world cup, with regions. then mix the reagions. and no one region can vote for themselves.

I am sure the EC can come up with something suitable complicated

Yeah, the trolls have been on a rampage lately!

Of course our friends in Europe will come up with some suitable solution for the farce the competition has become...grouping or whatever, but when the aliens come(lots of threads lately, they're bound to be here soon, I read it!!) will they get a spot I wonder?...

I think they could put on a hell of a show

Ha were'nt they INSANE, pure quality. I thought the contest was a little bit timid this year, could have done with a few transvestite monkeys doing welding or something.,

I long for the day when we pull out of europe. I am English, NOT european, and as a serving soldier of many years have told euro and yank commanders where to go for my boys as whitehall is full of traitors.. Perhaps i contributed to our disdain but could not give a flying monkies bollocks.

Yep, and since when could an previous winner enter the following year? i thought they couldnt, im probably wrong though. Im glad Germany didnt win thought, that girl thought she was the dogs bo****ks.
Also i hate to say what im about to say, but i have to because its true, i feel, ( and i dont know about other brits) that we have way more in common with the americans than we do with the rest of europe. Europeans seem very "foreign" to me, yet the USA is 3000 miles away! and i dont think its a language thing because most europeans have english as a second language. I just feel very far away from Europe. They seem very different.

Eurrovision went downhill after they started allowing Israel and other non european nations to enter the competition. It shouldn't even be called Eruovision anymore, they have allowed non european nations to enter so why not the whole world?

It is politically controlled and evryone knows that. What was once a great competition and entertaining has now become an international farce!

Your not wrong, since when has Israel been in Europe. Yeah maybe they should turn it into a World Song contest, it will then become 15 and a half hours long instead of 3. Oh happy day, not!

Sorry for the one liner but i really couldn't help myself, What, exactly, is wrong with Scousers ? Being one myself, I would like to know ? Unless of course that was a sarcastic comment it is quite hard to tell online.

I know nothing of Eurovision and never heard of Jedward before today, but there is no way these mooks should win any contest whatsoever. I made it about 30 seconds in. Wow. Wow.

And the Beatles, although scousers we can't forget them.


I meant what is with the "although scousers" ? It is hard to tell if he/she was being sarcastic or not and if not what is wrong with scousers?
