You have to admit it's unfair for a country of 5.5 million people to hold the balance of power over the other 55 million, I know that Scottish people have had Tory policies forced on them that no one there wanted over the years but everyone where i'm from in the north of England could say the same, where's our independence?
1) If Miliband doesn't want anything to do with the SNP and the Tories can't get in either then there will be a re-election.
2) The country voted to keep first-past-the-post rather than AV so the UK has collectively asked for a system that allows situations where any small minority can hold the power.
3) Fight for regional devolution from Westminster like the Scots have if that's what you want. Hopefully as happened with the Scots though it won't take many decades.
