Yes I do. Why so hostile? I am well aware that under the FPTP system

there have been anomalies throughout electoral history and that there have no doubt been situations in many past elections where such anomalies have resulted in inequitable situations in terms of number of seats.

I'm merely commenting on the fact that this is a pretty big quirk/annomaly and with the circumstances as they are in terms of the spread of votes is one that could end up hugely influencing the shape of our country over the next few years if it enables the SNP to prop up a labour government. I certainly cannot recall, in my voting lifetime, a situation where a minority party has ended up with such a large number of seats with such a low share of the national vote. is that not at least worthy of discussion rather than cheap points scoring?
