Minister insists government is 'getting a grip' on asylum system | Epping asylum protests

Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds insists the government is "getting a grip" on the asylum system following protests outside an Essex hotel housing asylum seekers.

Crowds waving Union Jacks have gathered outside the building in Epping to demand that the occupants be moved elsewhere following an alleged assault on a woman.

Mr Reynolds told Sky News there were "legitimate" reasons why people were upset with the system.
