    There we go then, advice for next year. Don't get cute and political and alienate a large segment of the voting base and juries.

    Surely if you were bothered you could just add up all the public votes and know what was left for the last one?

    Fair play to the Swiss. Great to have ended up with a winner that we can definitely say was picked on the song/performance rather than agenda.

    Would have preferred Croatia to win, but that's fair enough, Switzerland liked by Jury and Public.

    A lot of partizan/political voting obviously. Ukraine, Israel, I say no more. Israel tune wasnt actually bad, but Ukraine was very average.

    LOL apart from a few skiing medals Switzerland never wins anything. The little boring landlocked country in the middle of Europe will need to learn to have fun….

    First time since Celine Dion won in dublin in 1988, so well done.

    Not me favourite but a worthy Euro winner i suppose.

    No stupid speeches now Nemo, just do it again and we'll wrap this up!

    A thing isn't what it says it is.

    Perplexed at that winning. Very ordinary song. Well done to Ireland though.

    12 points for Israel from UK tele vote, shocking altogether. They did give Ireland 10 points.

    I couldn't understand how people were posting results before i saw them. Then I remembered I paused BBC when Doctor Who was on so I'm about 10 minutes behind

    That's an odd and very disingenuous take. None of this is about religion - it's about people disagreeing with a nation state's genocidal actions.

    Mod - warned. This is not the thread for political posts about current military and geopolitical conflicts.

    12 points from UK to Israel on the televote. Daily mail and Tommy Robinson only delighted.

    Good result, think the Swiss deserved it.

    Great finish for Ireland, hopefully will encourage a bit more interest from artists in putting themselves forward
