Petitioner celebrates Christchurch council backdown on stadium

The fight over the number of seats at Christchurch's new multi-million dollar stadium is over with councillors back-tracking on their decision to slash 5000 seats. The council's U-turn comes as new figures revealed the larger 30,000 seat option would cost an extra $50-million, rather than the $88-million first proposed. Rob Hough is celebrating - he organised the petition, signed by 24,000 Cantabrians, which called for councillors to change their minds. He spoke to Corin Dann.
