ReplyDeleteWhere was the outcry when Labour got 3 massive majorities on ~40% of the vote? Does it have anything to do with the fact that suddenly the wicked and evil Tories have more seats?

Ash, I think it has a lot more to do with the fact that Lib Dems gained votes and lost seats at the same time.
ReplyDeleteAnd lets remember the BNP (the 4th largest party) got more than half a million votes and no seats. The SNP got less than half a million votes and got 6 seats. Even the Greens got a quarter of a million and one seat. So nothing wrong there at all. PR (in some form) lets bring it on.
