Im proud to be a Brummie but at the same time I am disgusted with the Birmingham of today. To witness our culture being destroyed by another culture is hard to take. Yet if I dare to speak out in defence of my heritage then I am labelled as Racist. Grooming gang's, Heroin importation and gang related knife crime is a part of their culture, fact.. Only recently I was asked why i was in a certain area of Birmingham where White People aren't welcome. How can this be right?? Especially when I lost an Auntie in the Birmingham Pub Bombings and my Great Uncle is still buried under the BSA after it was flattened by Hitler. My family have given their lives for this city only for now there's areas that i can't go. And that's the real dark side of Birmingham!!!

I grew up in Antrobus Road, Handsworth and moved out late teens. Saw a recent video of Soho Rd recently and the amount of trash and dirt on the streets is disgusting. The council obviously don't care, the people living there certainly don't. I would love to visit areas I knew during my childhood but never venture there now. It makes me angry to be honest...

Originally from the city I do find it strange and awkward the way the road system has changed and were I to visit the city center, I would pron go by train rather than drive in. As for the buses, it seems a pity that you showed so many of the very old blue and yellow ones that have prob not been used on the streets since the early 70s, most of which are now museum pieces, then you show the red TFL buses that are in themselves a lot better than virtually anywhere else in the UK. Finally, the weather? Being in the center of the country, Birmingham is equally under the influence of the Atlantic as it is the North Sea, so that does seem a strange point to raise. The UK is only a small island country so, with the exception of Scotland, there would prob be little variation across the rest of the country.

When Detroit went bankrupt, things got ugly. A lot of other UK cities are on the verge of bankruptcy. I think what will happen is the central government will give them enough to avoid having to declare bankruptcy but these funds will basically be the city equivalents of life jackets. They may not go officially bankrupt but things will be bad.

@tomfenn7149 Жыл бұрын
Not too sure. Detroit is Detroit though, and like London, it was a major city. Birmingham although big has always been overshadowed by London and I fear what will happen next (I live in central Birmingham), is that HS2 will be completed and Birmingham will simply become another suburb of London. House prices will rocket even further. You can gauge this by looking at Digbeth which is already being pulled down to create a new service sector to serve HS2. Areas B12, B13 and B14 will become highly sought after by those wishing to escape from London. I think already run down parts of Birmingham such as Handsworth, Aston, Winston Green may finally improve, as those unable to find accommodation in B12, B13 & B14 will look there instead. Chin up. Brum not completely doomed yet!

A council in the UK can not declare itself bankrupt. But Birmingham is guilty of spending money it cant afford to spend, like the commonwealth games, ripping out the flyover at Perry Barr and all the empty housing in Perry Barr that was built for the games. They cant sell this housing, they cant even rent it out, some of these flats have no kitchens or bathrooms, so they will never be up to a standard to get a mortgage.

And summers are getting hotter but no to hot unless it's a one week heatwave but it rains mostly like the other cities in England. The dark side of Birmingham is the potholes on the roads and the Birmingham city council is bankrupt because they treated the woman differently to the men and they didn't wanted to pay the woman the same amount of money has the men which is so wrong that's why they gone bankrupt because the Birmingham city council didn't think they will get caught out . they just scum bags that's why alot of people are angry another reason is lots of rubbish everywhere in different areas it's because the Birmingham city council don't want to do anything they hardly collected the rubbish and we pay for it wouldn't that make you angry .
