Yeah, go Tories.

Would the second Green seat be Norwich South, then?

Ceredigion to Plaid Cymru, I suppose?

Clwyd South:
37% Labour
30% Conservative
16% UKIP
10% Plaid Cymru
4% Liberal Democrat
3% Green

2010:
38% Labour
30% Conservative
17% Liberal Democrat
9% Plaid Cymru
3% BNP
2% UKIP

So basically the Liberal Democratic switched to UKIP? LOL.

General protest vote?

It is more like LD->LAB, LD->CON, LAB->UKIP, and CON->UKIP.  CON->UKIP weaken a lot due to last minute tactical voting.  LAB->UKIP and UKIP->CON tactical voting are result of English Nationalism due to the threat from SNP.  In retrospect what save Cameron was agreeing to the Scotland Referendum.

UKIP's are voting tactically like a laser beam. It is as if they are all political junkies. Almost weird really.

I guess that shatters the stereotype of them being uneducated.

BBC says Mhairi Black is the youngest MP elected at least since the early 1800s.

Edit: since the 1600s, they are now saying.
