couldn't get on the iPlayer to watch due to boring reasons (and mr kcc wanted to watch something about 70s package holidays on C5 😕)

hope i can watch the full thing tomorrow

but I've at least seen johnny logan's euphoria

fantastic. weird but fantastic 😊
 
I had missed the opening act last night so I wasn’t aware of Eric Saade wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh around his wrist, causing the Eurovision organizers to not upload his performance or mention him on their social media. Apparently it’s being investigated if Eric, a man with Palestinian roots, broke some made up rules with this. My god.

No wonder there's people wanting to boycott it this year

Shall we just ban flags at Eurovision altogether now then?
This is getting ridiculous. Not a good look for the ebu.

And it’s literally not even a flag he was showing, so Eurovision is really being the worst once again. They simply don’t want any sign of Palestinian life to be seen. They said flags from non-participating countries are banned, so Eric didn’t even break that rule.

German media of course calls this a provocation 🙄

Honestly, I have no words for this overreaction.

Oh FFS. I haven’t heard his song, but the level of overreaction just makes me want to vote for him.
