Leicester's City Mayor has put development plans for Leicester market on hold. In a press briefing Sir Peter Soulsby said he’s looking at the possibility of keeping the area as an open space - as it has been for 700 out of the last 800 years. He says councillors and others have said that the space cleared by the removal of the covered market provides a once in a lifetime opportunity. But he admitted that Market traders remain concerned about the future. Political reporter Tim Parker asked Sir Peter why he's changed his mind.
