14% swing from Tories to Lib Dems in Bromley and Chislehurst

The Tories have retained what used to be their 17th safest seat by a margin of just 633. It is significant that at the same time Labour dropped from second place to fourth, behind UKIP. It is clear that as disillusioned voters turn away from Tony Blair and New Labour, it is the Liberal Democrats to whom they are turning - not David Cameron and his New Tories.
