We could vote Lib Dem and end up with a BNP MP - you want to tell a constituency that they just inherited the first BNP MP?
In a "democracy" this is the price you might have to pay. Better everyone has a fair vote and you get the odd aberration, than continuing with a few dictating to the many.

With some form of PR chances are there would be more than 1 Conservative MP in Scotland.
