Eurovision 2023 takes place in Liverpool tonight and we've got you covered for all the memes that you are going to need. This year's contest is taking place in the UK as last year's winners, Ukraine are unable to host due to the illegal invasion of their country by Russia and the ongoing war between the two nations. Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky has been prevented from speaking at the grand final but reigning champions Kalush Orchestra believes he would have wanted to. Tymofii Muzychuk, a piper who forms part of the seven-piece, told the PA news agency: “Actually we think that President Zelensky would have wanted to thank all the British people for doing this and, as we can see, Britain took this very responsibly, the UK. And so actually I think it would have been nice for him to talk.” Elsewhere, UK entry Mae Muller has received messages of support from the world of politics, as Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said “we’re all cheering you on”. “Good luck to (Mae Muller) a Kentish Town local, at @Eurovision tonight!” Sir Keir tweeted. “We’re all cheering you on.” Labour Mayor of London Sadiq Khan tweeted: “Tonight we’re rooting for our fellow Londoner Mae Muller in the #Eurovision final.” As the tension mounts, here's how the UK is preparing for the night's activities. Yes, that was Kate Middleton in the intro. Piers Morgan is not in the spirit of things. Lots of love for Austria's inspired Edgar Allen Poe song. Not vibing Switzerland. Not quite sure what Serbia was going for. We've seen that France entry somewhere before. Cyprus's entry turned heads for all the right reasons. Sorry Spain, it's a no. The bookies favourite Sweden put on a strong effort especcialy when they looked like something from a movie. Are we feeling the family vibe from Albania? Graham Norton perfectly summed up Italy's song Finland and Estonia could not have been more different. Finland never fails to produce absolute bangers. Czechia? We're all for it just watch the hair. Always gotta consult the meme when Australia pop up. Belgium's hat for the win. Armenia submitted an Ariana Grande knockoff by the looks of it. Moldova, yeah...you do you. Ukraine should probably win again. Additional reporting from PA. Have your say in our news democracy.

Tommy Fury brawled with a fellow former Love Island contestant on Saturday, coming to blows with Idris Virgo in the crowd at KSI’s fight with Joe Fournier. FOLLOW LIVE: KSI vs Fournier – latest fight updates Fury, half-brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson, is unbeaten as a professional boxer but is best known for his time on the reality television show Love Island, on which Virgo also featured. Virgo, who is also unbeaten in pro boxing, and Fury were seen fighting in the crowd at Wembley Arena, moments after a fight had finished. On the undercard of YouTuber KSI’s bout with businessman and ex-pro boxer Joe Fournier, influencer Salt Papi fought Anthony Taylor. The latter, a former training partner of Jake Paul, previously lost to Fury – as did Paul this February – but was named a decision winner against Salt Papi on Saturday. However, while the fighters waited for the judges’ scorecards to be revealed, Fury and Virgo began to brawl in the crowd. Fury, 24, has expressed a desire to fight KSI, 29, next and played down his fellow Briton’s talents on Saturday. “In my opinion, out of all this influencer boxing stuff, I beat the top of the tree,” Fury said. “Jake Paul's the best out of all of these, so all this now is easy money, baby.” Click here to subscribe to The Independent’s Sport YouTube channel for all the latest sports videos.
