Ireland to boycott the 2027 Eurovision contest over Israel’s participation.

Ireland will boycott the 2027 Eurovision Song Contest for the second year over Israel’s participation, the country’s public broadcaster RTÉ said.

Ireland was one of five countries along with the Netherlands, Iceland, Slovenia and Spain to skip Eurovision this year in protest over Israel’s inclusion in the contest, citing its war on Gaza.

Way to go to piss off the Aussies. Surely years of Eurovision appearances should grant Australia automatic associate membership!

(Any replies pointing out that the ESC is nowt to do with the EU will be given nil points)

🍁 How aboot that eh. 🍁

TIL that with Canada, the EU is following the #Eurovision approach to geography.

Trying to make an associative array out of disarray. OOPs?
