It's not that big a say in government. It's sort of a big say in who is in power but after that the representation in the running of the country is pretty much as proportional as they would have had in any place. Admittedly there is active policy intervention through the incorporated cabinet members but this is tempered by a certain amount of hobbling on issues that they might otherwise have fought hard on, such as Trident and Europe. There is no shortage of price to pay in this role and not everything will be as they wish for the next three or four years.
