As the representatives are voted in, there can be no such thing as under-representation. The only way you can say that ethnic minorities are under-represented is if they all live in a hamlet which isn't served by an MP. Or if you're a fan of affirmative action.

But three things I like from afar:
1. British accents
2. British humor.
3. The way the Prime Minister has to stand up in front of parliament and explain his policies, and his peers are allowed to argue with him and question him. I can't imagine our president doing such a thing!
hahaha but i'd love to see him try - that dolt.
