//The president of the UK Eurovision fan club, Alasdair Rendall, also told fans that Britain's place is not under threat.
He said: “No, we would not be barred. All participating countries must be a member of the European Broadcasting Union.
“The EBU, which is totally independent of the EU, includes countries both inside and outside of the EU, and also includes countries such as Israel that are outside of Europe.
“Indeed, the UK started participating in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1957, 16 years before joining the then EEC.”//
