  We are overrepresented at Westminster in terms of constituents per MP.
  

  We used to be, but that was about 20 years ago.
  

  
  Still the case.
  

  No it isn’t. The number of MPs in Scotland was reduced from 72 to 59 in 2005.
  
  London today has 73 MPs and the London Assembly.

  With clear justification, according to the Boundary Commission.

  It’s ok to admit I was right.

  My apologies. You clearly stated “in terms of constituents per MP”. You were right.
