We shouldn’t be in Eurovision. If the UK had any self respect, we’d be boycotting it like Iceland, Ireland, The Netherlands, Spain, and Slovenia.

I’m not disagreeing with your sentiment but just pointing out it’s highly unlikely to see the UK go against Israel - from the Balfour Declaration to the Palestine Act 1948, the UK played a critical part in forming Israel as we know it today and are ultimately the catalyst of the war.
The history of the two states are deeply intertwined and no doubt benefit both parties (e.g a British ally to strengthen access to the Suez Canal).
Unless there’s a monumental shift in the entire political landscape of the UK (even the rise of anti-immigration sentiment is actually in favour of Israel), the two states will continue their long-standing support of one another.
