Aaron Keown: Christchurch City Councillor after vote against Govt's housing density plan - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Christchurch councillors have given what they describe as the proverbial finger to the Government over housing intensification plans.

They've voted against the Government's directive for new standards which would allow up to three homes of three storeys each on most sections in the city.

The issue they now have, while sending a strong message, is the Government can bowl through with it anyway by appointing a commissioner to force through the changes. 

Christchurch City Councillor Aaron Keown joined Mike Hosking.
