This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Decisions about the UK's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest are a matter for the BBC and the organisers, not the Government or House of Commons.

The BBC is an independent body governed by a Royal Charter. Under the terms of that Charter, the BBC is operationally and editorially independent of government and there is no provision for the Government to intervene in the BBC’s day-to-day operations.

This means the Government is not responsible for decisions relating to the Eurovision Song Contest.
