The UK's Eurovision track record is getting a parliamentary once-over, which is either a sign that someone takes this competition very seriously or that we really do need something to talk about.

It's a reminder that even a song contest can't exist in a vacuum, and for Cledvibes Radio listeners who care about music and the world around it, sometimes the two become impossible to separate.
