      Just heard...

      1.1 million vote Green Party = 1 seats
      1.2 million vote Scottish National Party = 56 seats


      did UKIP get 4 million votes for 1 seat?

      It's an odd system for sure.

        What a complete joke

        FPTP doing its thing again lol.

        I can see why FPTP works as you want strong government able to make decisions. But how them sheisty Scotsmen managed to wangle 56 seats from 4.8% vote share is beyond me.

        Lib Dems got nearly a million more votes than them and ended up with 48 less seats

          The parliamentary election in the UK is according to "first past the post" system... It isn't according to the "party list" system... Didn't you know that?

          Later edit: you should ask for a two-round voting system...)

                Even with first past the post thats a huge discrepency bebetween votes and seats.

                  You guys need an "upper house" that offers a fairer representation of the will of the people.

                  oops, my bad I forgot about the House of Lords. Lol.
