You could also point out that the SNP got 3.9% of the total vote and 7.8% of the total seats. I don't have a solution to this, the game has to be played under the existing rules, but I don't think this means it's "less democratic". Certain measures are definitely anti-democratic (for example, the voter ID issue), but the system itself is what it has been for a long time.
I still think that a partial driver of Brexit was that UKIP didn't get a single seat, despite getting a large proportion of the vote. That may have exposed their shallowness as well as sating their voters somewhat, but looking at Europe just now (e.g. the AfD in Germany) maybe that's naive of me.
