2:23 am
a really big woman. and i remember people from my community calling me slow, like cross breed beard called me slower lake. you are dirty, blurred. seattle is the far city and all lower u. s. ban in gospels discrimination. i feel i am lucky to be in this place. ok, let's get mourners. we can speak to sharma, swan, she's a member of the seattle washington city council. she joins us now live from seattle . really good of you to join us. your council, i believe received thousands of emails in support of this law. clearly this is an issue that people feel strongly about. oh absolutely, there's no rush and there's overwhelming support for this honor and the ordinance game from my out of office. it's not like the age. don't go out on the council on drakes of orderly. we actually forced underwood yes. on the strength of the movement. exactly. on the basis of what you're talking about uniting. oh press.
2:24 am
gosh, the news and indians, and others of asians dominant. got in those muslim 6 socialist union members. everybody coming together and demanding the city council should do the right thing and bass discrimination. why do you think seattle became such a focus point for this cast issue? we really should look at the statistical data on gas based combination that is a really wide spread and serious issue throughout the united states. wherever there is a certain concentration of immigrant community workers from the salvation region that's going to be true. so it's generally true in the sector that sector, sorry. and seattle is one of the big house. but the main reason why this legislation was wondering why this historic victory was one in seattle is precisely because we have my socialist counsel office for a whole decade. we've used my office as a platform to fight for ordinary people like working people. that is why it's no coincidence that not only did we win this story legislation yesterday,
2:25 am
this was also the office that helped us with the movement to win the $50.00 minimum wage and also the amazon taxing big businesses to find affordable housing. so do you now expect other cities to follow your example? i have no doubt that a lot of people, hundreds of thousands of people are duly inspired by the historic victory. be a one, you know, we may see i will the or city in the nation to bank us destination and actually it's more than. 8 it is the 1st city globally to win this kind of ban on cost commission outside of south asia. so this is genuinely historic and you cannot possibly overstate the significance of it. and i know that working people in other cities absolutely want to win something like this. i would just warm down that it's not going to be automatic. or you can go to the democratic party council members and say, please do this in our city. we will need to build
2:26 am
a kind of fighting movement that we build here in other cities as well to when this happens. some hindu americans who oppose this legislation, they say it unfairly singles out hindus and can generate more anti hindu discrimination gene. that's a fat consent. i don't think that's a very concern and to be clear, this so called concern is really all right, when talking wind is being put forward by organizations like the american foundation or the goal is, you know, in those of north america, do you know our organization that i b believe rightly bye. all right, and if you look at their website, that agenda are very closely aligned with the right thing, reactionary part of the agenda party regime in you know, the headed by run minister in the money. so when they say all, when they claim that protection die, and i handle this argument actually is nothing. you know, this is an old argument. the right thing. remember the lawsuit against you, right? for business owner,
2:27 am
claiming that they must be allowed to discriminate against you. people because they're christian, i mean that is one of their argument. everybody understands that that is a right wing talking point genuine progressive of course, the freedom of religion. but also understand that it cannot be used as an excuse to abuse or discriminate against any community. as you say, the very has start. sorry, seattle becoming the 1st city in the world to pass such a low outside south asia. and of course it was you who played a key role in making that happen. how significant moment is this for you? for me, coming from a dominant gus brown in abilene, india, and just having spent my entire childhood and adulthood really absolutely moved by the somebody not only of breast got people, but all were and working class people the one over. and you will, you know, becoming a socialist precisely because i don't believe that capitalism can offer anything really any form of decent society because capitalism will always be full of
2:28 am
economic exploitation and oppression. even all of that for me as a socialist, this is a crucial moment. i am personally moved by the strength of the movement. we are both. and that is why one of the next steps is that alongside my organization, socialist alternative. i'm also launching a nationwide movement. got work or strike back and are having the nation wide launch next month. and we're going to strike back. it's all about bringing that kind of buying strategy that we have successfully used in seattle taking nationwide to make sure that ranking by union members. and those of us were fighting against oppression fighting for affordable housing in come together. and when they, when they get to talk to sharma, once member is seattle, washington city council. thank you. when to storm has cool is 1200 flight cancellations across the united states and to stay highways from arizona to wyoming were closed. and schools throughout the dakotas
2:29 am
ministers in wisconsin called off. because to say the west won't be over for several days. now, some supermarket chains in the united kingdom have begun to ration some fruits and vegetables as a result of disruption to the supply chain. severe weather has hit harvest in spain, north america, spain and north africa, sonia gay, echo reports, no tomatoes for sale here, or blueberries. and the dwindling options of fresh produce in this supermarket have not been missed by regular shoppers. love to use a pin from way too much to might do with them for now until it comes back, i sometimes go to the shore there, go and be only been on the ship and where there's availability would likely be paying a premium, especially for out of season purchase, the supermarkets affected have said that these shortages are only meant to last for
2:30 am
another few weeks, but they're a bigger questions as to what's behind the supply issues. mainly from which countries these supplies are coming from. and what are the climate issues that have been affecting them? 2022 is the 2nd hottest year on record in europe. heat waves and extreme temperature, and one of europe's biggest food producers. spain have meant fewer available crops to harvest. the giant gas heated green houses that grow fresh produce in countries such as the netherlands, have been affected by the huge rise and energy prices caused by the war and ukraine is climate change begins to bite. we will see these impacts on the u. case food supplies, but also on the case, hard pressed farmers who already paying hundreds of 1000000 millions of pounds extra for fertilizers, am for energy because of the price of gas and who are also seeing themselves exposed to the impacts of climate change light. last year's drought and the u. k face is one of.
