Syrian family divided by immigration rules

Amira earns less than the £18,600 a year required to bring her non-EU husband to the UK.

This income threshold to bring a spouse over is being challenged in the Supreme Court.

Amira told the BBC's Asian Network that being a single mother makes it difficult to find a job.

As a result, she is living apart from her Syrian husband.

He could not join her in Britain when she left Damascus two years ago to protect her son Jude.
