Isn't it great, we're one of the "Big 5", along with France, Germany,
Italy and Spain who are automatically allowed to participate in the
final as they are the five biggest financial contributors.



My country is Great.

No such thing as Great "France, Germany,Italy or Spain"



"Great" means it includes lots of bits - Like "Greater London"

I doubt if Greater London had even be imagined when the term Great Britain
came into use.


It was first officially called Great Britain in 1474, when London had a
population of around 60,000, so you are probably right.


Wonder if they meant grate?
