The Conservatives did not do as bad as expected, but have gone from 1st last time to 3rd.
LibDems. The expected wipeout nearly happened, winning just one seat and dumping them to 5th. A very bad night.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I voted UKIP mikey and yes I trust them to look after our interests better than the other parties. At least they will be euro sceptic enough to not collaborate with EU subjugation machine. The main parties may have done better if they'd appointed EU sceptics in the past instead of the kow towing apologist they did send.
As I pointed out in Chilldoubt's thread, a surprisingly large proportion of UKIP's increase in its share of the vote appears to have come from voters deserting the minor protest parties and switching to Farage's party instead. Certainly the Conservatives saw no great loss in their vote share, and most of that was probably the usual hit a party in office takes in elections that can often be seen as a chance to protest against the government.
Perhaps this election represents the moment when UKIP established itself as the successor to the LibDems as the party of choice for those who reject both Labour and the Conservatives, rather than a swing to the right or something.
