Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

Talk about the European Convention on Human Rights is rife at the moment. I hope this link explains how important it is (and as a subtext do we want to join Russia in leaving it?) youtube.com/watch?v=ptfm...

I can

Well this couldn’t have come at a better time www.bbc.com/news/article...

Well, looks like I'm writing about Elon Musk and Donald Trump again today. As Ron Burgundy once said, that escalated quickly. www.bbc.com/news/article...

@mariannaspringbbc.bsky.social looking forward to the emergency "ELON" Americast soon (Thanks to you and all the team for the great work)

Sources reporting that Zelensky has called Trump and offered to mediate a peaceful resolution between Musk and himself.

Thanks for the company this evening Salzburg, Vienna or Innsbruck next year??

“What the hell just happened?” wasn’t the triumphant song of the contest, but it was the defining slogan #Eurovision

Great song and so glad Austria won

This voting is bonkers from the juries. Public vote even more influential than usual....

Please Celine, do start singing as this is awful I'm afraid from Nemo

Loving this song battle, perhaps this should be the new way to decide the winner next year?

So former Swiss Eurovision songs means that Celine is definitely singing tonight then....

So votes in the house (1 each as its my phone bill!) have gone to Sweden, Netherlands, Italy and Austria (but eldest thinks he should have voted for someone other than Austria now!)

Really torn as loved Sweden, but there's been great entries this year

Really not sure who is going to win tonight. Netherlands and Denmark performances much better than semi final, Malta and Finland bonkers and Sweden makes me smile (and can't get the tune out of my head)

Beatles knock off band from Portugal

The staging is so much funnier knowing the word she was forced to change #eurovision

16 yo saying Malta giving vibes of Toy by Netta (knew it reminded me of something)

This was the other one that I thought wouldn't get through, but willing to give it another try from Armenia

Was surprised this made it through to the final from Greece, not sure I've changed my mind Energy dropped again in the audience

How many Eurovision tricks in this Poland song, violin, flames hanging in the air...

The BSL during Finland was sensational #Eurovision

Feel a bit sorry for Italy having to perform after Finland

Love, you'll freeze to death in that get-up in Helsinki in January... #eurovision

Here she comes #Eurovision

I do like this song from Netherlands #Eurovision

This staging coming up for Latvia is quite something #Eurovision

Jedward entering again this year #Eurovision

Austria might be unusual enough to win (but having heard Nemo again at the beginning it might be too similar) #Eurovision

They gave it a good go for UK (still don't think we'll win it) #Eurovision

That was great from Spain, might be one to watch out for in the voting #Eurovision

America watching #eurovision.

Still think this sounds like a 6th form band trying to be Radiohead. Got through to the final so I'm obviously missing something #Eurovision

All anaesthetists suddenly loving Estonia. Just need a song about cycling

Teenagers have swapped allegiance from Australia to Estonia for #Eurovision I just want to know what state his knees are in after that dance

Feel sorry for Luxembourg as this is a great song but in the slot of doom as song 2 #Eurovision

Did enjoy the comment from @frasernelson.bsky.social on the Today podcast about this being the most inebriated electorate in the world for #Eurovision (And it's wonderful)

Quite surprised that Australia didn't go through on the public vote, but gald that Austria, Latvia and Luxembourg are through #Eurovision

Scott Mills and Rylan weren’t joking about the BSL during Finland #Eurovision

Not exactly subtle from Finland, but that was amazing staging (and the song was a banger (oo-er missus) #Eurovision

Serbia was ok, might scrape into the grand final #Eurovision

Quite like the nightclub feel to Germany (but would love that light up electric cello) #Eurovision
