Lots of fed up voters around the world who just aren't happy with the direction of the mainstream political parties. It's always nice to see Blair get a reality check and the Tories obviously have some work cut out as well. Both parties lost traditionally safe seats in by-elections.
Tony Blair and David Cameron were both dealt by-election blows in heartland seats today.Voters in Blaenau Gwent, south Wales, failed to re-elect Labour in one of its former strongholds, then the Tories almost lost Bromley and Chislehurst to the Liberal Democrats, previously safe Conservative territory.
In a further setback for the Prime Minister, Labour was relegated to fourth in Bromley and Chislehurst, behind the UK Independence Party.
