Made in Birmingham 💙
Congratulations to both Jude & Jobe, who have been called up to represent England alongside each other for the first time. 🏴
Scandalous. Absolutely no place for this in our society. Cllr Feeney must resign.

Research by economists at NYU found that compulsory petrol price transparency in Germany reduced petrol prices by around 3% and diesel prices by 2%.
Very sensible pro-consumer policy here to put pressure on retailers to compete!
I know people are worried about fuel prices. And I get it. You get to the pump, watch the numbers climb, and wonder why it's costing so much more than it used to.
The reality is that global events are pushing up costs, and families here at home are feeling the impact.
But I won't accept that there's nothing I can do to help.
That's why from today, you'll be able to see petrol and diesel prices on Google Maps, compare nearby stations and find the cheapest option before you fill up.
It's a small change, but if there's a practical way to help people keep more money in their pocket, I'll do it.

Disingenuous framing. It’s the biggest local authority in Europe!
Birmingham is ranked 1 out of total spending for benefits as a local authority at £4.1bn
The benefits bill per resident is £3,521 which has increased by over 25% in just two years!

Alarmingly poor recruitment this summer. So many clear gaps in the squad and down to the bare bones after 6 games! #bcfc
