Humiliating Norwich by-election defeat for Gordon Brown

Tory leader David Cameron has hailed his party's "historic" win over Labour in the Norwich North by-election. Tory candidate, Chloe Smith, overturned a comfortable Labour majority to win by more than 7,000 votes. There was a swing from Labour to the Tories of 16.5%, with voters also backing smaller parties such as UKIP. Mr Cameron said the victory - only the Tories' second by-election win in a Labour seat for 27 years - showed people "want change in our country". Labour said it was "disappointing" but the vote took place in "unprecedented circumstances".

Its still a 2 headed snake just like in the USA and Canada. If there were to be real change, then a different political party would have been voted in. It's a real disappointment.
