A new YouGov poll revealed Brits would vote to leave the Eurovision Song Contest by 52 per cent to 48 per cent.
Here is how Twitter users reacted to the voting percentages, coinciding with the way the UK voted in the 2016 EU referendum.

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
