After the UKIP onslaught on Sunday night, it seems David Cameron has listened to what the people want, one particular issue that is angering a lot of Britons.
UKIP won 24 MEP's, Labour won 20, the Tories 19, and the Liberal Democrats 1.
Firstly, if there's one lesson to be learnt, it's that people are not in favour with the Lib Dems anymore, UKIP are getting ready to take position of third party.
Secondly, the Tories didn't have as bad of an evening as first thought, and Labour didn't do as well as first thought.
In fact, for majority of parties, it was a disaster, and quite rightly so. It's about time we, the people, told our main parties that we are fed up of not being listened too.
David Cameron seems to have really taken on board just how annoyed people are, however Ed Miliband seems to have shut his ears to us, the people he claims to champion, and has apparently 'brushed off' Sunday's disappointing results.
Not the thing people want to hear Mr Miliband!
Owen Jones, in today's Guardian, is basically telling the Labour leadership to ignore why people have gone to UKIP, that we shouldn't concentrate on immigration issues.
And he wonders why UKIP has had a wonderful surge in the polls.
These are issues people want dealing with, the EU is an issue people want to get done, same with immigration, pushing aside with only fuel the anger, Owen Jones is basically telling the leadership to carry on where Tony Blair left off, ignoring the electorate.
Sadly for Labour, it seems Ed Miliband is gladly following this idea on.
So really it's only the Conservatives who can deliver any sort of discussion, and referendum on the issue playing on people's minds.
UKIP are a good way of letting David Cameron, and the Conservative Party, know what we are worried about, what we want them to do.
