UKIP To Take Westminster Seats?

A survey of 14 Tory-held seats in which Labour came second in 2010's vote show Ukip are set to top the polls in two - Thurrock in Essex and Thanet South in Kent.
The survey, conducted by former Tory donor Lord Ashcroft, also spells trouble for David Cameron, with 11 of the remaining 12 constituencies on course to return a Labour MP.
Lord Ashcroft said the results showed Ukip was taking votes away from Labour voters as well as Tories as a result of strong work by activists on the ground.
He said: "With Nigel Farage planning to concentrate his party's resources in just 25 targets, Ukip's impact is likely to be felt in a series of local contests to which their headline vote share may bear little relation."
