Slovenia’s request will be rejected, and Slovenia will in turn announce that it is boycotting Eurovision. Ireland, Spain and other countries will follow swiftly. The end result will be Israel winning Eurovision by default, due to there being only three contestants, and the UK and Germany owning the bottom of the board.
