Something to do with the bias inbuilt into the electoral system Marek.
Compare the voting between the 2005 election in which Labour won a 65 seat majority and 2010 in which there was no overall majority.
In 2005 Labour's winning vote was a smaller proportion compared to the Conservatives indecisive 2010 proportion of the vote.
It does not end there
In 2005 the losing proportion of the vote for the Conservatives was higher than Labour's 2010 losing proportion of the vote.
With that inbuilt electoral disadvantage it is no wonder there was an indecisiive result iin 2010.
That is why a reduction in the number of MPs and an equalling out of the size of Parliamentary seats is so important for a healthy democracy. They also need to ensure that there are English votes only for English only laws.
