I listened to a radio programme yesterday that said city centre Birmingham was a dump. Apparently it is as the Bronx with a selection of 120 nationalities milling about coupled with booze,down-and-outs,construction noise,dischevelled buildings and 'very loud foreign chanting' being shouted out from megaphones there. Today(R4)was citing covid as a contributor to growing desperation/violence/cabin fever with evidence of one off violence breaking out.
And still they come.
Not a place to visit.
Tho I am told it once was?
