This is a normal post You sock it to them, you bearded sandal wearing wags,
with your homophobic Christian leader and your mighty mighty haul of NINE, yes 9, MPs.
Also, don't you morons want PR? Under that system, UKIP, who got almost four million votes in the 2015 general election would have a lot more MPs than you with your less than two and a half million votes.

This is a normal post anyone thinking of voting Lib Dem
should remember the 2010 election when Cleggy ran on a left of Labour ticket, then they jumped into bed with the Tories and did the opposite of what they campaigned for.

This is a normal post Anyone who supports PR
Should remember what electoral system gifted the BNP two MEPs.

This is a normal post I think that says a lot more about apathy to the EU elections than it does the system
Many countries make a pretty good fist of PR, typically where their political landscape isn't as adversarial as ours.

This is a normal post If by "good fist" you mean ineffectual and bickering coalitions,
I couldn't agree more. PR is such a success in Belgium that they went without an elected government for nearly two years. Truly, democracy in action!

This is a normal post Yes Benny junior. Geert Wilders & Co only got twenty seats in the Dutch Parliament.
A mere 13% of all seats available. Truly a victory for the liberals and their wacky voting system. Islamophobia has been soundly defeated in the Netherlands. Well, that's how it was portrayed by the BBC and Guardian over here. Fake news. 13%, Benny jr. They'd have got nothing like that under FPTP. It may not be perfect, but it acts as a disinfectant that kills off the lunatic fringe, which liberals and moderates need to remember when they start whining about Populism. PR is Populism in electoral form.

This is a normal post calm down sweetie
I'm not advocating PR in the UK. PR clearly works for some.

This is a normal post Clearly not in Belgium if you want a democratically elected government,
or Holland, unless you're happy about over ten percent of your MPs being openly islamophobic and racist.
