As Eurovision winner Nemo returns the trophy, a reply to a supporter of Israel's inclusion in the contest

I was a delegate yesterday at the SNP National Council in Dundee.  Regular readers may remember that when I was a delegate at the special SNP constitutional conference in March, I asked for advice about what I could safely say on the blog about that event, and the answer was "pretty much nothing, apart from the fact that it happened and you were there".  I'm fairly sure the same principle applies to the National Council because it appeared to be a private session throughout.  So a photo of me posing in highly dignified fashion outside the venue with my delegate card will have to suffice.

As there isn't much I can say about the day in Dundee, today's video commentary instead returns to the subject of Eurovision, and the EBU's shameful failure to remove Israel from next year's contest.  My previous video on Tuesday about the subject attracted far more views than I expected.  In fact it was my most-viewed video so far by a long distance, and also received almost 300 comments - including, inevitably, some from pro-Israel apologists containing the familiar misdirection and misinformation.  In the new video I respond to one of those comments in particular.

Scot Goes Pop: The Final Fundraiser is underway (you can read more about why I anticipate it being the final one HERE) and it's already pretty close to halfway to its target figure of £1700.  A million thanks to everyone who has donated so far.  Card donations can be made at the GoFundMe page HERE, or if you prefer to cut out the middle-man, direct PayPal donations can be made to my PayPal email address, which is:   jkellysta@yahoo.co.uk
