Romania protesters not backing down after decree repeal



   About 500,000 demonstrators have rallied across Romania, despite the government revoking a controversial decree that fuelled their discontent.

  The left-wing government earlier scrapped the decree, which would have shielded many politicians from prosecution for corruption.
   Protesters remain dissatisfied about a revised version of the bill which will now be put to parliament.
  According to statistics, recent days have seen Romania's largest protests since communism fell in 1989.
