The present voting system is flawed , at least 3 million people have voted ukip
In the current system that was always going to be UKIPs biggest flaw: that its support is spread too thin.
I also agree that the system need changing.
So what would be the perfect kind of system for you then? While I agree that this system is not perfect, it's not a bad system either...but there is room for improvement.
Personally I am glad UKIP only got one seat, I consider them to be a far right wing party, with racist, homophobic and xenophobic views. Their whole elections campaign was based on anti-immigration and anti-EU rhetoric.
The system certainly isn't perfect.
Although I'm not in favour of UKIP ruling the country, I would like there to be more UKIP MPs in Parliament. They have done a bloody good job of getting people politically involved, and I do feel quite bad for Nigel Farage - he's a smart man who has been campaigning for change, and he has certainly got people talking.
UKIP are too far right wing. I would vote for a tory if it meant keeping UKIP out.
I do agree that FPTP is unfair to underdog parties (the SNP came on on top purely because they were concentrated in a few constituencies). I don't know what would replace it though.
All you morons, quite frankly, labelling UKIP a 'right wing' party.
Is that why they snatched up a huge proportion of the old working class vote in the North of England? Get a real political education!
Still, while the system annoys me, I am a believer in strong central government even though I support UKIP.
They got 13% of the vote which should give them around 80 seats......not 100. Well that's if you are looking at votes from all over the union
