Eurovision voting isn’t exactly cutting edge politics. All of the Scandinavian countries voting for each other, or Cyprus and Greece always giving each other points. I can see the UK getting minimal points forever, whatever the song.
As I said they were 2nd in 2022, then dropped to 25th (second to last) in 2023, and then up to 18th and 19th and now last place. They didn’t get any televotes since 2024. To be honest they didn’t do great in the past in general. Last time they won was 1997 since then they were four times in the top ten and six times they came last. The rest of the time since then they were mostly in the lower half or lower third, sometimes second to last. Honestly coming last this year is pretty on brand for the UK in Eurovision.
