Disneyland workers threaten resort 'shut down'
Employees at Disneyland, the so-called 'Happiest Place in the World,' are threatening to go on strike as they demand higher wages and improved worker rights. Gathering outside the world-famous California resort, more than 200 Disneyland staff, some in costume, have also denounced alleged anti-union practices after claims were made that the company had reprimanded hundreds of employees for wearing union badges.

00:00You know what, none of us want to strike.
00:16That's the first and foremost.
00:18We want the contracts to be fair for everybody, Disney and cast members alike.
00:23If we got to go to strike, then that's what we got to do.
00:26But all the cast members, we want a fair contract for everyone.
00:31Shut it down!
00:33Shut it down!
00:50It's personal to me because last summer, I was working here full time and I had other
00:55employment and I was still living in my car.
00:58I had to come into the resort to shower and use the restrooms here.
01:03And nobody should ever have to experience that, working a full time job.
01:06If a strike does happen, we will shut down the park.
01:11They cannot operate the park without us.
01:13We consist of people who take your tickets at the parking lots.
01:17We drive the trams.
01:18We take your tickets for both Disneyland and California Adventure.
01:21We make your candy.
01:22We operate the stores.
01:23We operate the rides.
01:24They shut us down and we shut down the whole park.
