In reality, seats are distributed according to population. The U.K. has the third most seats, because it is the third most populous country.
I still don't get how that's undemocratic. You vote for your representative the same way anyone else does. Just because your views aren't represented by the majority doesn't mean the process is undemocratic; rather it means your views are likely in the minority.
Did we as British citizens get a chance to vote for Juncker?
Tell you what was democratic. The referendum. And the first thing the supposed liberal democracy loving lefties did was protest it because people are too stupid to know what they're voting for and because they didn't get what they wanted.
inb4 "hurrr democracy means we can protest", doesn't mean what you're protesting for isn't the reversal of democracy.
