i heard they got banned for soliciting support based on their politcal perspective rather than their musical talent - i wouldn't have voted for 'em unless cooki ehad brought it up but i did compare them to the other competitors before voting. the organiser/editor of the awards was on the radio saying it doesn't count that their politcal life is inexstricably linked with their music.
anyway bolox it is, just 'cos they got a radical stance i reckon

Nah it's good to get as much cross over going for the folks who stay resolutely in one forum. Me I just flit like a butterfly sticking my opinions into any interesting looking conversation :)

Bands are always using nefarious ways to get around these online voting shennanigans - Belle & bloody Sabastian, anyone? Or, currently, AntiHero. The only reason they picked up on this one was the content.
