Euro Elections are different because they're Proportional Representation, not elected by constituency. So basically, the SNP got the most votes in every constituency, but the 6 Scottish MEPs are divided up by overall percentage for the whole country. Brexit party got (I believe) around 14% of the overall vote so they have one MEP. Lib Dems and Tories also have one Scottish MEP each. 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.
