The UK Independence Party has inflicted a major political setback on David Cameron by beating the Conservatives into third place in the Eastleigh by-election. [...]

Nigel Farage, the Ukip leader, said the Eastleigh results showed that British politics is changing and voters are rejecting all the main parties.

“What happened here in Eastleigh was not a freak result. Something is changing,” Mr Farage said.

"People are sick and tired of having three social democrat parties that are frankly indistinguishable from each other."
