Message | 100 seats in Parliament works out at 526,203.2 people per MP. Quite clearly this is far too high a number and means that MP's are unable to properly represent the needs of the populace in parliament. By increasing the seats to 500 it changes to 105,240.64 people per MP which is a far more representative and manageable number. When these statistics are taken into consideration it is clear that an increase in the number of seats is necessary. |
