However, if this was a General Election, every Scottish MP (in Westminster) would be SNP. Bit confusing really because of the two different electoral systems.

So, the fact that near all of England is blue..doesn't necessarily mean all the European MPs for here will be Brexit party then? Thats..a silver lining at least. Though I still don't know what they actually DO
