i find it funny that every year when the UK representatives go through a national competition to see who will be our entry, the winner is always full of confidence, giving us promises of victory- despite the fact 99.9% of the population knows their talking bull****. the UK isnt exactly the most popular of european countries. lets join the euro- then we'll win.

I'd hate to have the euro...im bad at maths so i'd probably end up spending too much money on something and getting ripped off. also, then theres no fun of going to another country and using different money, and i think i'd just prefer to stick to my pounds and pence. but yeah...hmm....no point in changing currency just to get a higher place in the eurovision song contest, i mean, do we really want it in England?

Britain is the model for Europe and has been for 1000 years. We don't need the rest of Europe and never have. We don't need others meddling in our affairs. To join the EU would be to lose our identity and traditions. we have one of the most successful economies in the world so why change it? the next step from joining the euro would be joining the EU constitution- handing over most of our affairs and heritage to federates in brussells. anyway, back to the topic. who won last night?!

back to eurovision, i must confess, i avoided it almost successfully, but i accidentally turned it on while norway was on , and was traumatized thoroughly...i don't even know how croatia did...and it is very political these days...but most neighbors vote for themselves because they simply relate to their songs more ( for example the nordic countries always vote for themselves, and so do the ex-yugoslav countries, mainly because we understand the language...i personally wouldn't vote like that, but then again, i wouldn't vote at all, because 99 percent of the songs are pure sh.it, composed according to a pattern that will supposedly guarantee the victory..)
