Heavy doubts on that. Professional juries don't prefer songs with artistical value. Statistics don't support this (obvious) assumption. If there is a clear bias at all, then it's one towards 'conservative' performances - strictly in the format of the competition. Outsiders are to some degree handicapped (maybe that's the reason for the heavy increase of uninspired mediocrity of this year's entries - desperate courting the professionals' favour...).

Let's see if there are enough girlies to vote! It doesn't throw me out of my socks, but that's the same with all the others too. However, if the prime minister of the UK told the EBU president that they are willing to host the next competition, then their chances are splendid. Of course I'm sure about an honest and correct voting!

...and I am disappointed by your lack of support for your Greeks!
