'Nobody chooses persecution' - asylum rule changes criticised
An asylum seeker in the UK, Mary, criticises the government's planned changes to asylum rules.
She says "nobody chooses persecution" and that she cannot even put a television in her house.
The weekly allowance for each person in the family is £39, which she says leads to "tough decisions" over spending money on clothes or food.
