A decision to open a municipal car park in Jerusalem on Saturdays, the Sabbath, has caused an outcry from Ultra-Orthodox Jews who say it is an act of desecration.

Secular Jews and entrepreneurs say the conservatives are stifling the city's businesses.

Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland reports from Jerusalem.
