I find the views expressed by Cllr Feeney totally abhorrent. I am calling for him to resign from the Council as I do not believe he represents the values of our city. Roger Harmer, Leader of Birmingham City Council
We’ve always known it, anyone who lives or visits Brum knows it – but it’s now official – so I’m delighted to see Birmingham named as one of the friendliest cities in the UK, according to a @CondeNastTraveller survey.
Our warm Brummie welcome, as well as the city’s booming hospitality and food scene – is now seen as one of the city’s biggest draws. And for those who don’t know Birmingham, come and find out what this friendly city is all about!
The Archers is part of Birmingham's story. For generations it's been made here, creating jobs & nurturing talent as part of the fabric of our city.
I'm writing to the BBC to make the strongest possible case for it to stay in Birmingham, where it belongs. #KeepTheArchersInBrum
Digbeth Loc Studios is already playing a huge role in the city’s development as a major filming destination and creative hub & this complements the work we're doing across Digbeth to improve the public realm and support its distinctive cultural identity

Homes England has selected Digbeth Loc Studios as its preferred partner to deliver a new creative neighbourhood at Fazeley St in the heart of Digbeth
It's great news and an important milestone in the continued regeneration of Digbeth, one of the most vibrant areas of the city
The city already has a great reputation for attracting major events and this will help promote Birmingham as a place to invest, visit and do business.
Well done to everyone who made this happen.

Birmingham’s accommodation sector has voted to establish the city’s first Accommodation Business Improvement District.

Great to see this partnership between Birmingham City University and the BBC; it's a real vote of confidence in the city, its students and graduates.
This sort of collaboration is an important step in helping young people move from studying into sustainable employment.

I have written to the government following the announcement of 4,000 potential job losses at JLR
Our automotive industry is strategically important to the UK; we need targeted support for JLR, and the wider automotive supply chain, to protect jobs and preserve critical skills.
