@LiamJohnBell Historically it’s not about a simple head count but reflects the fact that we are in a political union of distinct countries. Consideration also has to be given to the huge geographical areas covered by small populations in Scotland. — PolitiTweet.org

@LiamJohnBell There is proportionate representation at Holyrood. But the UK parliament is meant to honour its origins - that is a parliament created from two separate legislatures. Smaller countries are given disproportionate representation in EU institutions for similar reasons. Best JN — PolitiTweet.org
