Denmark's strict immigration policies in focus as issue dominates election campaigns in Europe

Despite a coalition government led by a centre left party, it has some of the most restrictive immigration policies in the EU. On average, just around 85,000 people a year immigrate to the country - and those who start a new life there must integrate into society or risk being sent home. John Bevir reports from Copenhagen.
