UKIP's Stephen Harness saw an 11.4% increase in his party's share of the vote in Cleethorpes but it wasn't enough to trouble the Conservatives.
Martin Vickers won with 21,026 votes, Labour's Peter Keith was second with 13,133 and Mr Harness was third with 8,356.
Nick Clegg's majority in Sheffield Hallam is down to just over 2,000 from something like 15,000 in 2010. He says it is now painfully clear that this has been a cruel and punishing night for the Lib Dems.
He says the election has "had profound implications for the country" and for the Liberal Democrats.
He adds: "I will be seeking to make further remarks about the implications of this election both for the country and for the party that I lead and my position in the Liberal Democrats when I make remarks to my colleagues in the Liberal Democrats later this morning when I return to Westminster."
