Cameron vows to win back voters after Ukip clean up in elections

David Cameron today pledged to “work really hard” to win back voters who abandoned the Conservatives for the Ukip as Nigel Farage’s party made a series of stunning gains in the council elections.
The UK Independence Party leader claimed a “sea change” in British politics as they gained 131 council seats – far more than predicted – while securing second place in the South Shields parliamentary by-election.
