This won't get as much coverage as it deserves... Genuinely brilliant that the Govt has given the West Midlands Combined Authority the green light to use its own money to deliver social housing @insidehousing insidehousing.co.uk/news/west-midl…

what robert jenrick said about my neighbourhood was divisive, hateful and plain wrong. i'm glad to have shared my thoughts with @bbcwm, @NewStatesman and in a letter to the @guardian which you can read below ⬇️ theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

Robert Jenrick has no idea about how communities work. He stands to learn a thing or two from communities like ours in Handsworth.


Robert Jenrick takes aim at Handsworth, my neighbourhood. He called it a 'slum' and bemoaned not seeing 'any white faces'. This morning I explained why he is wrong on @bbcwm


🚌 Buses... beats... battlestar galactica ✅ Buses need to be... accessible, affordable and reliable 😀 ... and publicly owned (soon come)!

Have you ever seen a fridge on the side of the road? ⁠ ⁠ It is horrible - what can we do about it? 🤔

Everyone should feel safe when they travel. That’s why we’ve launched our new Safer Travel Strategy with WM Police and transport partners. Together, we’re taking real steps to improve safety and confidence across the region’s transport network.


Someone in Handsworth goes around stealing wheelie bins and taking payments to dump rubbish... it’s ruining our streets.

I loved working on Colmore History for @ColmoreBID, a 16-page magazine celebrating the Business District heritage. From the School of Art to George Shaw, every page tells a story. 📸 Here’s cover-star George on Paradise St – where it all began. >> colmorebusinessdistrict.com/publications/c…

“I was declared homeless…” I recently spoke to a tenant in a local exempt accommodation. With his permission I’m sharing his story. 🙏🏽 He was declared homeless and housed in a vermin infested property here in Handsworth. 😔


We receive many positive and supportive comments about our community work ❤️ But recently I’ve seen an upsurge in hateful, divisive and racist comments 🤔 People who divide us will not win. We are stronger together.

A few weeks back I reported the uncollected @biffa bin... now it's multiplied with an additional @VeoliaUK bin! ✖️ Both say they care about the environment and waste, but evidently not in Handsworth. I've logged the issue, so has the local BID - but nothing has been done... 🤔

🚶🏽‍♂️ I was walking back from the tram stop and I bumped into Pamela who was litter picking on Benson Road. 💪🏽 I asked her what made her do that and she spoke about pride in her local community. Who inspires you in our community?
