Not content with savagely cutting public services in Birmingham, the council are now trying to scrap jobs, history, and one of the most thrilling places in the world, to make way for what they perceive as “modernisation”.
They seem to have followed the same path as the cuts to local jobs and services – make their decision first, then have a couple of meetings which include no consultation whatsoever, ignore the voices of the majority, and ten continue with their plans.
The council are doing very well in creating a “them and us” culture.
The traders deserve every brummy’s full backing! Support the markets!
