Good luck to our candidate - any questions please ask.
Is there not already a European Bias within the security council, with the UK and France. Would Luxembourg's appointment only further this bias?
I don't think so - aside from geography Luxembourg is not terribly aligned with any particular European country, and so there would be little chance of a security council bloc forming.

But in general, Luxembourgian ideology is much more in line with France and the UK than China or Russia. And a shared border always leads to shared interests. There is very little way of avoiding this, so does a third Western European country on the SC not lead to bias?

No - while some bias may be elicited, the majority of issues in the UK and France are essentially untransferable to Luxembourg. For example, it was relatively unaffected by the recession, allowing Luxembourg to make decisions on lessening the effects that were not biased towards itself. Clearly in this way Luxembourg would not have these self interests and would be able to provide a more balanced viewpoint within the Security Council.
