so, smithfield, like i said has been here at the plant for several years. the plant has been an institution in southern california. they're basically saying, the recent rise in costs of doing business in california, forcing it to close the plant and move operations to the miest. they talk about two things, specifically. they talk about the cost of utilities in operating the plant there, and they also talk about a state law that was passed in 2018. proposition 12, which, you know, requires that the sale of pork in the state comes from pigs that are able to have more room in the pens that they're housed. basicaly, it's very much an animal rights issue, and they're saying, you know, that these two issues, basically, have just made it too difficult for them to remain in california and to do business in the state. >> there's a question you posed that at the heart of this story. is it the fault of california? have we created circumstances in the state that make it rder for certain businesses to survive? >> well, the question of doing business in california has be

smithfield was set for huge regeneration, but a gap was found to put sport here.xpensive, so being innovative in the way you deliver the event and, as we've done here with the smithfield site, using a site that at the moment isjust empty, with nothing on it, and utilising that opportunity to ensure the games are located in the heart of the centre of birmingham has been very, very important. it's somewhere i used to come as a child with my grandparents and stuff, shopping, and to have the games in the middle of the city is going to have a lot of people just walking past it, maybe not even having tickets, but it should be a great experience for everyone. the shape of this city has changed through the years. archive: the bullring's multistorey car park can store away _ more than 500 vehicles. and you don't have to worry about finding a space - to fit your car into. now, smithfield is part of its new image — an urban space made to work for a games — and two sports on the fringe are at the heart of it. he is ice cold, he is the man of the hour! joe lynskey, bbc news, b

nesta mcgregor is at smithfield for us — nesta, it's certainly one of the liveliest venue of the gamesnt to the worst places to work, let's just say that. some athletes need silence and being able to concentrate, here is the opposite, you can hear the tunes blaring and in between points or change of end it is the same, sometimes i have to do a double take to see whether i am in birmingham or barbados but it is borrowing 2022. raw land that beat new zealand in the men's quarterfinal earlier, nobody expected that. —— rwanda beat new zealand. a home nation has never won a medal in beach volleyball and at 2:30pm the woman's scottish duo play australia. australia currently at the olympic silver medallist and then the big one at 4:30pm, england's men play in gambia, they should be quite confident of beating them. as i mentioned, in about an hour i won't even be able to hear myself think, and i am happy about that. it's one of those great moments where they told me to throw to you by saying it's one of the liveliest venues and then there is no one sat behind you! but i know you are right, it

yelling slurs at a duke player and threatening her during friday night's women's volleyball game at smithfieldonight, we have reaction from byu students. i think that's very sad that that happened today. many byu students are talking about the incident at last night's byu versus duke match. >> lesa pamplin tweeted about what happened saying her goddaughter. the only black starter for duke's bully ball team was called a racial slur every time she served and was threatened by a white male. that holder to watch her back going to the team bus. but i think what happened last night >> is is disgusting. i think it represents for university. i think the university should have taken put your action against byu today releasing a statement in response saying in part we will not tolerate behavior of this kind. specifically the use of a racial slur at any of our athletic events is absolutely unacceptable. >> byu going on to say if and was banned from all byu, athletic events and that although this person was in the student section, they were not the byu student poses to all the. >> fans of to a feel for th

followed by the chinese owned smithfield farms. there is no small farming in sussex county anymore, no peanut parlors anymore. jobs are scarce. 16%, 16% of the population in sussex county lives below the poverty line. yeah. talking about elitism. you need to know your history. they need a decent job, that is what they need. nearly 60% of the population is african american. and, the population for the first time in a long time, grew faster than the 1990s. you could probably guess why. because of the prisons, that is why it grew. the rest of the population has declined. sussex county is an a maelstrom of global capitalism. when we put it in that context, now it starts to make sense to me why that civil war history, the civil war history which was erased from the landscape. no ruins, no monuments, nothing. to make that judgment, it seems to me to be hopelessly naive. so, i would like to leave you with this quote -- a quote from the novelist, a struggle of men against power is a struggle of memory against forgetting. thank you very muc

wall near the barbican for 45 years, but will shut its doors in december and move to a new site at smithfield capital, but a bit of everything really in the forecast. some rain, yes, but also some sunny spells and things will be warming up somewhat, some rather mild, humid feeling nights. and then as we head into the bank holiday weekend, the humidity is swept away to be replaced with fresher feeling air. now for this morning, well, there is a weather front out towards the west and that's set to be pushing eastwards as we head throughout the day. so there will be some showery outbreaks of rain on and off. certainly won't be raining all the time. lots of dry weather too, but always plenty of cloud and quite a keen south—westerly wind blowing too, possibly some heavier downpours as we head through the afternoon, top temperatures of 22 or 23 degrees celsius. now, as we head through this evening and overnight, our weather front clears away to leave us with a mostly dry night to follow. there will be some areas of cloud around and it's set to feel milder than it was last night, too. temperatures g

nesta mcgregor is at smithfield for us.? absolutely very lively, you've never seen beach volleyball before, this is where competitors need to be... the more noise, the better. there goes the dj, right on cue. but this is the business end of the tournament, lose and you go home. right now we've got scotland women taking on australia. earlier, a massive upset, rolando beating new zealand who was one of the favourites in the men's to win it, but the champions australia are through because they've beaten... right now the scottish duo of lynn beatty and... they are couple points higher, but australia are very good, olympic silver medalists. the home crowd are on their side. later on tonight, anglin's man are in action, as well —— england's man. our home nation has never ever won a medal in beach volleyball. this year could be our year. the next time you come to me, i might need some sun cream. but it's by fornals. me, i might need some sun cream. but it's by fornals— it's by fornals. great stuff, hopefully _ it's by fornals. gre
