Prime Minister Scott Morrison found himself in hot water with Australian music fans after calling the Federal Election on May 18th – the same day as the 2019 Eurovision Song Contest.
As in previous years, the election count usually goes long into the evening. Unfortunately for Australia, The Eurovision final will broadcast live on SBS from 5am May 19th. Not ideal.
On Fox FM’s Fifi, Fev & Byron show, Brendan Fevola asked Morrison about the date clash, joking about which contest he should be voting in.
Morrison was very quick to respond…
Kate Miller-Heidke will represent Australia in Tel Aviv this year. Let’s hope the Aussies can wake up in time to vote – we’re looking at you, ScoMo!
