Talk ? Vive has audio too ! ?<| sep |> It ' s why the SNP has the most disproportionately high representation No , that ' s the Conservatives , who got a bonus 13 . 8 % of the MPs from FPTP vs PR , almost exactly matching the 12 . 4 % of the MPs that UKIP missed out on . The SNP got a FPTP vs PR bonus of just 3 . 9 % of the MPs , behind Labour who got a 5 . 3 % boost . Other losers were the Liberal Democrats with 6 . 7 % FPTP penalty vs PR and the greens with 3 . 6 %. Your use of the word disproportionate is a clever pun between an electoral system that isn ' t very popular with the general British population and the usual meaning of the word which has a value judgement attached your statements prejudicially assume that PR is right and any difference in outcome is an error or failure of some sort . I am not sure how it would have looked if we used FPTP for the referendumIt would have looked like the US presidential system , and would be an obviously absurd or insane choice , since we were deciding a single countrywide question , not choosing a person to represent our constituency and stand up for our local needs in the UK parliament . I ' m sure you don ' t need me to point out that actually there are many courses of action to pursue in leaving the EU . Arguably it might have been a good idea to get the UK ' s opinion on that too with a supplementary question . Do you find humour in that , knowing that nearly 4 m people voted for the party ? I venture to suggest that you don ' t find this funny because you ' re extremely sensitive about UKIP ' s failure to win Westminster seats that one in particular , whereas people who aren ' t UKIP supporters , particularly those who are unhappy at the referendum result would find a lot of humour in UKIP ' s failure to win an election . If you find yourself using statistics to explain why a joke isn ' t funny you ' ve already missed the humour that was there .
