A campaign group has hit out at Ireland’s Bambie Thug and other contestants for their failure to boycott Eurovision 2024 over Israel’s inclusion.

It comes after the UK’s Eurovision entry, Olly Alexander, released a joint statement with eight other Eurovision contestants, including Bambie Thug, on their decision to participate.
