I can't stand UKIP, but at the GE they got about the same number of votes as the Lib Dems and SNP combined. The fact that they only have 1 MP shows how unrepresentative our voting system is. Again, I'm not a great fan of BBC news, but I think it's right to cover UKIP, especially when it's funny.
Indeed. I'm hoping that this and the referendum 'one person one vote' might just nudge us towards PR—especially as Labour are going to need it in the future too.
And maybe now we've 'brought back democracy' maybe we can actually have some and have an elected upper house? Even the Sun might support that now? (Oh, the irony!)
