00:00hello everyone welcome back to my channel please subscribe my channel what happens when a government
00:06official can't provide answers on a crisis that affects thousands in this gripping segment kate
00:13garraway confronts a labor minister over the immigration debate leaving him squirming and
00:18the audience questioning the future stay tuned to witness the tension unfold and discover why
00:23this issue matters to us all you're sitting there coffee in hand watching good morning britain
00:31you're just trying to get your day started but then the news comes on and suddenly you're hit
00:36with the story that makes you want to shout at the tv it's not just a political issue anymore
00:42it's something that feels deeply personal like it's happening right in your backyard that's exactly
00:48what happened when early education minister stephen morgan appeared on the show to defend
00:53the government's decision to appeal the bell hotel injunction let's break down why this particular
00:59story hit a nerve with so many people it all starts with the bell hotel in epping essex this wasn't just
01:07a random building for the local community it was a familiar landmark a place that held memories and a
01:13part of their town's identity then like so many other hotels across the country it was designated to
01:20house asylum seekers this move felt like an imposition a decision made far away in a government
01:26office with no regard for the local community it's a classic case of what feels like a top-down
01:33we know what's best approach that leaves people feeling powerless and ignored so when the epping forest
01:40district council secured a temporary high court injunction to block the asylum seekers from being housed
01:45there it was more than just a legal victory it was a moment of hope it was a sign that local
01:52communities could stand up for themselves and be heard it was a moment of justice for those who felt
01:59their lives were being decided by someone else but then the government decided to appeal and that's where
02:07the raw frustration came to a head for many this decision felt like a direct contradiction of the
02:13government's own promises our viewers constantly say read the room come up with the solution to
02:20these asylum hotels kate garraway said acting as a direct voice for the people she was asking the
02:26question we all wanted to hear answered why is the government fighting against the community that is
02:32simply trying to get a handle on a problem and what was the response minister stephen morgan just like
02:39his colleague before him went straight for the inherited a complete and utter mess defense this
02:46phrase has become a tired overused cliche that does nothing but alienate the very people politicians are
02:53trying to win over we've heard it a thousand times and frankly we're tired of it it feels like an excuse
03:00a way to deflect blame instead of taking responsibility the public wants solutions not a history lesson on past
03:08government's failures morgan went on to list the government's efforts 35 000 people with no right
03:14to remain in the uk have now been deported the landmark deal with france and reduce the cost of asylum
03:20hotel accommodation from over 9 million pounds a year to now 5 million pounds he spoke in terms of
03:26numbers and statistics but what he failed to do was connect with the emotion behind the frustration
03:32he was talking about the system but people were talking about their lives this is a classic
03:39political tactic when you can't win on the emotional front you try to win on the data front but it falls
03:45flat when people are feeling an intense sense of betrayal and a loss of control the feeling is we're not
03:51just numbers to be processed this isn't just a budget line item this is our community then came the
04:00contrast with the refugee council ceo envar solomon who reportedly claimed to have a plan that could
04:06clear all asylum hotels in just six months morgan's immediate dismissal of this as a gimmick that
04:13doesn't achieve anything only added fuel to the fire it felt dismissive as if the government's way was the
04:19only way and any other idea no matter how promising was not worth considering it's that feeling of my way or
04:27the highway that drives people crazy and makes them feel like their concerns are not being taken seriously
04:33morgan's reference to the previous government's 700 million pounds that delivered four volunteers to rwanda
04:40was a classic political jab but it didn't do anything to solve the current problem it's the kind of back and
04:48forth rhetoric that makes politics feel like an endless cycle of blame with no real solutions in sight the public
04:55doesn't care who was to blame they just want to see the problem solved the disconnect was palpable
05:02garraway speaking with the authority of someone who hears from viewers every day told morgan the vast
05:09majority of people have just had it this isn't a political soundbite it's a statement of fact it's the raw
05:17unfiltered voice of a public that has reached its breaking point they are tired of the promises the excuses
05:24and the endless rhetoric they want to see action morgan's final response reaffirming the manifesto
05:31commitment to close all asylum hotels by the end of this parliament felt like another promise that was
05:36too distant too vague and too similar to the ones that have already been broken the public has become
05:43cynical they've seen too many promises evaporate and until they see real change they won't believe it
05:49this interview with steven morgan wasn't just a broadcast it was a mirror reflecting a deep-seated
05:56crisis of trust in our society it showed that when politicians fail to connect with the human side
06:03of an issue when they resort to jargon and blame they lose more than just an argument they lose the faith
06:09of the people they are meant to serve the bell hotel isn't just about asylum seekers or legal injunctions
06:16it's about the feeling of being unheard and the hope that one day someone will finally listen
