Rejected petition Stop funding Eurovision

More details

I love Eurovision, however why do we continue to fund Eurovision to gain automatic entry?

This years uk entry by Molly was fantastic and never deserved to gain only 40 points and 17th position.

It is political nonsense.

Neighbouring countries voting for each other rule the competition. Russia who got boo'd all evening scored 89 points gaining 7th place!?

It is time to stop funding, and spend money on things closer to home more worthy.

Time for the UK to Pull out and Stop Funding the Eurovision Song Contest.

Enough is now enough, if Terry can pull out so can we!!
