This is a link post We're gonna go build our own European Capital of Culture, with blackjack and hookers.
In fact forget the European Capital of Culture!

Not my thing but bit shitty to lead them on for a year and a half.
Timing smells like a negotiation tactic.

There would have been a lot of people that have invested time in this.

Also the smug levels in Liverpool must be at an all time high given they were the last one.

Meaningless shite. Dundee was in the running for fuck's sake...
It's got all meaning of an 'I did my best' medal at a school sports day for mongoloids.

And btw Dundee is no Cumbernauld.
The windsurfing might be shite but I love the place. Went to a club there in the 80s called the barracuda (afair) where they had a shark in a big tank. Sure enough, some punter got lobbed in. Happened most Fridays I understand.
Also footie club nicknamed the arabs because the pitch was once so fucked up it was more sand the grass. #football-lols.

This is a normal post the general idea of city of culture is to direct funding for arts at shitholes
it's why London, Paris etc are never in the running

Glasgow seriously got it's act together and started loving itself again.
It helped that 92 was the start of the big upswing, but I genuinely thin it made a difference

This is a normal post Seems strange to have continued with the bid once article 50 was triggered.
Being disqualified from the competition would surely have been a bigger risk than losing it.

This is a normal post Strange how people forget that Israel's also not in Europe.
(one might argue that Russia/Iceland/Turkey aren't entirely European either).

And anyway, it's only because the EBU (a collective of TV stations) is based in Europe, but has worldwide membership.

Fun fact: most of (ex-French) North Africa are automatically allowed to enter the contest too.

This is a normal post in case anyone scrolls back this far...
ECoC is open to: EU, EFTA and EEA members. Also countries applying for EU membership.

It became clear in the last few weeks that the UK still plans to leave the EU and not join EFTA/EEA. And anyway, if the UK did try to start joining EFTA/EEA today, it'd take over 5 years to become a member anyway.

The cities were stupid enough to spend hundreds of grand on something that they're ineligible for. If they'd already started the bidding process and not quite the moment that Art50 was enacted, then that's entirely their own stupid fault.
