The UK keeps sending rubbish acts to Eurovision to avoid winning.
The country that birthed The Beatles, Queen, Oasis, George Michael, Elton John can't come up with one decent act a year that encapsulates enough of the Eurovision vibe? Something wacky and fun to get us at least within a shot of winning every year. You could pluck any two drag queens off canal street and they would do betted than 90 percent of our entries from the two decades.
Yes, everyone hate UK, but we haven't put anyone in who doesn't have "banking advert" song in for a while. Because the UK doesn't want to be a front runner in Eurovision, maybe for some international diplomacy thing.
They got too comfortable with Sam Ryder and will nuke our chances for the next 10 years because we can't have that happening again.
Edit- through thoughtful exploration, and definitely not wild speculation, I have come to the conclusion that this is a coordinated effort by select members of the BBC every year to take a tax funded holiday and doss about to a European city and potentially just go on the booze. The less British people care about Eurovision the less effort they have to put into the recording and creation of Eurovision content the more time they can spend pissing about.
