I live in Birmingham. I returned back from Florida after 7 years and I really didn't think their was a possible way for brum to become worse. I was wrong. How many weeks in a row I've seen someone literally passed out, face planted on the floor in town with police around the corner more concerned about "protests". Then the city itself is "bankrupt" because we are treated as an individual entity that the UK government won't ever pay out or assist. The real issue is not immigration, knife crime or racism. The real issue is the government itself refusing to actively change these cities, they don't even care about London anymore. Disgusting the way this country has been run.
and millions given to other countries like the transport system in Kuala Lumpa , yet the community like this could desperately do with that kind of money.
Well said. The UK in 2024 is in a state of managed decline (minus the management). Multi-national corporations skimming off every penny they can while our society evaporates.
You’re right, everyone is too quick to blame each other. It’s the government who has caused this mess. Look at all of the years of austerity, cuts, decline, what else do people expect.
Billy you're the first youtuber I've seen that hasn't been scared to go around the real rough areas in brum. Lots of youtubers do tours, they walk down 1 suburban street at 10am and get out.
I grew up in Handsworth in the 90s and made my escape but moved back to Lozells 7 years ago to help look after my mum after she lost her mobility.. words fail me tbh.. The entire inner city of Birmingham is virtually devoid of the English, those who remain are targeted with class A drugs especially the women to get them into prostitution. Seen it for years, it affected my mental health, the streets are filthy and there was no community for support.. I was just surrounded by the 3rd world languishing on a council waiting list I’m living on the outskirts of Brum now, back within an English community, but they are all lefties and championing the mass immigration I watched ruin Handsworth and the surrounding areas in my lifetime
I was born in handsworth 21 i came back years later its still the same i love the place still although there arent many white people i am from mick parents anyway. Handsworth has never been English except before WW2
Jeez what an eye opener,makes me appreciate my life sat watching in the comfort of my home with my hubby and two sons ,I never take anything for granted ,makes my heart bleed seeing people desperate like this 💔
People can change i was on the streets far 2 years after. And was on brugs but I get help from a Christian charity and now I happy with a lovely family god bless 🙌 everyone who is out there
I love this geezer. It's the juxtaposition of being an absolute animal, a true *monster of a bloke who has served time in a Thai nick and entered into Muay Thai tournaments while he was there, along with a rough background in Liverpool; all the blagging, fighting, problems with drugs - balanced out by the fact he is a mature, wise, sincere, honest gentleman. He is no threat to anyone and is about as far removed from being a bully as you can get. Know what I mean? I think it was Jordan Peterson who said as a man, it helps if you can be an absolute monster if needed, but keep it under lock and key and only ever show your gentlemanly side. Thats this guy. You get a genuine sense of compassion the way he is with the crackies that he meets. No judgments or condescension - just a caring, sympathetic attitude towards them. He is a smashing bloke. *Monster, but not in the 'nonce' or 'wrongun' sense of the word, obviously. Just in terms of being a handful.
I used to live in Birmingham, and worked near Handsworth, getting the bus there every morning in the dark cold winters. It was pretty Grimm, although I lived in Birmingham back in the day, great nightlife etc I now live in deepest darkest Cornwall. Great video Billy ❤
Just to correct you the one stop shopping centre is not handsworth - it is Perry Barr & in Perry Barr they had the athletic stadium for commonwealth games 2) Handsworth has relatively few estates and you predictably missed out filming the areas of handsworth that is purely semi detached & detached houses with grass verges 3) It's either a trend by Vloggers or convenience or design to film only homeless and drug addicts or those suffering with mental illness .
Seeing that girl smashed was grim Billy. Shows you the huge problems that media don't talk about. Good man for showing it. I met you in Southport few weeks back Billy, pulled up in my car, hope ya good, stay safe 👍
That girl on spice was absolutely heartbreaking to see. I do hope she can get help. That is no way to live. Your vlogs are real eye openers but thats the grim reality in today's society.
You wouldn’t believe what that area used to look like .. It was a very posh middle class shopping area , right behind those shops are West drive & North drive once one of the poshest private rds in Birmingham, then down to Handsworth wood etc where actress Noele Gordon lived she used to shop on Villa rd in her silver rolls Royce etc . Then the ethics started arriving with the diversity they bring and enrichment aka rapes in Handsworth park that once hosted flower shows the dog shows hence the white flight out the area . Ex Handsworth resident 1950 - 1987 ..
BTW that black-and-white building on the corner where you were talking to the girl behind it was once the Swiss bakery that made patisserie out of this world and the queue used to be down the road for them is now the immigration advice centre ironically
I livee in Lozells and it's not a place I plan to bring up my kids. I've seen everything that goes on in these areas which you become a custom to. I purchased a house outside Lozells/Handsworth now where i plan a new life for my newborn.
Growing up in Bordesley Green and Alum Rock as a kid I really thought the whole country was the same as this! It was only until I got older and started to travel around that I realised that the area I grew up in was a ghetto and most other places weren't.
That was my old manor bill. Glad to be out of there as it’s grim. Like everywhere white and dark dominate the area and completely ruin it. Living clean and in piece in Scotland now. Keep up the good work mate.

Handsworth used to be a relatively decent area. Even in the 1990s we used to go to a club there called the Monty. Now it’s seems really bad. Welcome to the future.
This makes me sad and angry, all these born citizens on the streets while illegals that arrived last week are put up in hotels and given money to survive. How about we help our own citizens first, white, brown or black.
Refugees are only being put in hotels because tories and everyone since thatcher sold off council housing supply, didn't build more, those houses end up under corporate ownership and cost more than the average brit can afford so the councils only option is to put people in hotels, ironically costing the taxpayer more than if we'd just had council houses.

I lived in Gerard street just off Lozells. We left there when i was five years old to go to Kingstanding, which is going down the pan just like Lozells has, but years later. Just shows you that nothing is getting better in Birmingham.
I'm originally from Newtown, used to know a few people from kingstanding back in the 80s/90s was a proper rough place back then, I remember the crossways pub, the Charlie and college arms, beggers bush 👍
All the money spent on migrant hotels which could be spent on our own homeless and those fighting addiction it’s only your videos that show how bad it is up and down our beautiful country Billy keep up the good work hope family and Joe are ok be safe and take care
do you really think the people agree with you? hardly no migrants in hotels until 2020, yet the people voted for homelessness back in 2010 and they loved it, even the lower paid class turned on the unemployed and the unemployed turned on the ill. as for those with addiction the people on social media were saying send the lot to a dis used oil rig and let them rot (one example),, funny though as when the migrants were getting put into hotels them exact same people were saying FEED OUR HOMELESS FIRST but they made an error as people got on to these far right wingers and they changed it to FEED OUR VETERANS FIRST,
💯 Makes my heart break when I see our own lads on the streets with addiction and mental health problems whilst migrants are living it up in 4 star hotels with taxpayer’s money. ❤

I used to shop at that One Stop shopping centre when it first opened, looks like it's gone down hill. I left Birmingham 32 years ago and never wish to move back.
May I ask where you moved to. Birmingham is grim, question is.. where in the UK is better from people with real.life experience of living there long term?

This was a fascinating watch Billy, i coudnt help thinking for such a run down place ,there was no shortage of up market motors !! Couple of week back i remember seeing disorder on the same street you filmed on. And wasnt that the roundabout that was going crazy too. You deserve a lot of respect for filming such places . Msm will not touch it... Regards from Thailand and a big hello to brother Joe.
My mum was brought up in Lozells in the 1950s, and she remembers it as a nice, strong community area back then, and she used to to tell me how all the neighbours use to keep their doors open so they could pop in for a cuppa. It’s a right sad sight now! Birmingham is just a litter strewn mess and the pride has gone out of people now!
I used to go shopping with my mom at Alum Rock, when I was a kid, It as turned into a right shit hole, do they still have the NO WHITES AFTER 8 O'CLOCK signs up!
Gunmakers Walk. Birmingham used to make a lot of guns in Victorian times, then all the little firms got consolidated in Birmingham Small Arms - BSA. Who ended up making motorbikes.
Tell you what mate, for such a deprived area with rubbish in front gardens and walk ways, there's plenty of nice cars around there. That I don't get. Great video.
No racism here this is just an observation and an opinion the main difference between the Muslim community and the "mainstream" is that they all want to live together they stand together they fight together giving what is a small minority more strength than the majority same as the travelling community (I've seen 10/15 caravans turn up and terrorise a town of 15000 because they stand together) as I say no hate here I respect that
Further more I wouldn't want pitch forks and burning torches but we've lost our community spirit time was England was like these two communities I've mentioned whether gathering at churches or even all out at local pubs or local associations I new everyone's name in my street growing up an they would protect me almost as much as my parents (two of cos yeah fathers count!) Now I live in flats don't know any of my neighbours the local pubs are closed churches empty and the only local association is the food bank where I volunteer

I grew up in Bordesley Green. As a pale man i had to relocate in 2005 as did every other pale person who had lived and grown up there. Drugs, violence, and the rampant grooming of our daughter's gave us no choice but to go. No help or assistance from police or government, and NO community leaders to voice our concerns. It's all rotten to the core. Chelmsley wood and Northfield side of Brum is probably the only remaining pale working class area that they can call their community theirs, out of the whole of Brum.
@@Murf-cz1iv I forgot about Kingstanding! It's been a while since I was in that neck of the woods. I suppose Falcon Lodge in Sutton is still relatively unaffected by it all too. I use to go clubbing with a bunch of lads from Kingstanding back in the 90's, were a good bunch!

Ahmad & Williams was a boozer. I lived in alum rock till i was 15, 42 now. it was "The Rock" pub many zulus frequented that place. So many fond memories, it looks depressing now such a shame.

We've watched a lot of your videos and admire how you've turned your life around, wer a couple & know a lot about addiction, we've both been in the grip, hate to have to say this but a few negatives we've shared many of your videos in the past & left positive feedback, didn't like the fact you videos that poor girl she was in no state to consent, also wasn't the fact you knocked back that guy who asked for a quid, but everything's card's these days, you know wer your going couldn't you make sure you've got a pocket of change, we wouldn't go into town without some money to give ,wer not even making videos, your lunch looked nice couldn't you have done without that,just saying , hope to see you being a bit more generous, after all you know what it's like 😊
I grew up in Newtown, which is next to Lozells, the council have never really done much to redevelop innerxity areas . Also by default all immigrants are housed in areas like Handsworth so it becomes a melting pot of cultures. I rate you for giving an unbiased real view of Bham, is a shame to see so many of your viewers are keyboard racists...
This is literally on my doorstep I live about 100 yards from where this is filmed it's certainly grim to say the least however if you keep yourself to yourself and don't get involved in stuff you shouldn't be doing then you'll be fine
Bless that poor girl man :( hope she finds help at some point before it becomes to late. Gunmakers walk has somthing to do with gunmakers from years ago, there is a pub called the gunmakers arms aswell. I could be chatting it and my google searching is weak 😂
I live in frankley in Birmingham and it's not like any of these areas and it's a council estate yh u get ppl on drugs and stuff but it's a nice area plenty of fields and we got waseley hills and lickey hills not far
When you was in alum rock you should of gone into the Saltley inn you’d have gotten some gotten some great stories from the remaining old locals. Its heartbreaking to see Birmingham reduced to this
When I was younger used to live in Answorth four Hill Road by the police station and remember the riots yes my dad was at work me and my mum sat there and all the noise and we didn’t realise what was going on until we heard on the news that have moved Liverpool loving it 😊👍
What a wake up call I've seen people on drugs and I've thought it was disgusting but my heart goes out to that poor girl and also the people on the streets the government should make these people a priority its heartbreaking these lives ruined people should not judge them they need help not ignorance

do you really think the people agree with you? hardly no migrants in hotels until 2020, yet the people voted for homelessness back in 2010 and they loved it, even the lower paid class turned on the unemployed and the unemployed turned on the ill. as for those with addiction the people on social media were saying send the lot to a dis used oil rig and let them rot (one example),, funny though as when the migrants were getting put into hotels them exact same people were saying FEED OUR HOMELESS FIRST but they made an error as people got on to these far right wingers and they changed it to FEED OUR VETERANS FIRST,
💯 Makes my heart break when I see our own lads on the streets with addiction and mental health problems whilst migrants are living it up in 4 star hotels with taxpayer’s money. ❤
Wow Billy what a depressing place.Glad i escaped in 92 to NZ.Feel sorry for all British patriots out there
You did the right thing! I am planning on moving to NZ, the uk is getting very bad, i am a bricklayer by trade and looking for the best options to move away😁🫡
Britain has had shit areas for centuries, it’s nothing new. You don’t have to feel sorry for me or lot of us in The U.K. I live in a lovely area.

We got massive problems in this country the lad Yemen came across as a good lad just in the grip of addiction heartbreaking to see
That young girl broke my heart.
I used to shop at that One Stop shopping centre when it first opened, looks like it's gone down hill. I left Birmingham 32 years ago and never wish to move back.
May I ask where you moved to. Birmingham is grim, question is.. where in the UK is better from people with real.life experience of living there long term?
@@jaeda88 I now live in Brighton, it's a lot better than Birmingham but is certainly not perfect.
High cost of living, council banning pesticides, pavements full of weeds, also increased immigration recently, we now have a Bangladeshi mayor. Brighton is a lot cleaner and safer plus shopping and entertainment is a lot better.
You started off in Lozells, went to Perry bar and ended up in Alumrock
Wish i could have showed you around
Finished of in Boardsley Green
@@theallornothingpodcastwith4442 Sorry you did, i typed the comment out just before the video ended lol
Keep up the good work !
@@theallornothingpodcastwith4442go to castle vale a housing estate that really was considered the worst estate in the 70s and 80s.
All what he shows none of it is Handsworth, and one stop shopping centre is in Perry Barr ffs
I was thinking that, when he said it, apparently he gave the guy on Villa Road £2 he was buzzing, the spice girl said she is going to sue, yes unfortunately I live around here. I try to help a few them with my church but it's a hard battle@@scitec6166
I live around the corner and it’s not that bad , you just got more hostels with addicts in residential areas which makes the place seem worse
I work in these areas regularly and find its okay during daytime but still rough.I deffo wouldn't go at night.Takes bottle to walk around on your own tho recently listened to both your books on Audible,brilliant some life youve lived mate 👏🏻👏🏻
Parts of Handsworth in the old days was middle class but not any more!
Those place are still there. Flats and houses are going for a lot of money only 10 minute walk from the one stop shopping centre where he was
I can smell it through the screen 😂
Cool. Thanks for the tour. Keep em comin)
Wow, the things that have been said to you. That's raycist when you mention a type of food. EDL, which was disbanded over 10 years ago. Very sad.
They still live in medieval times .Bit behind the times 😂
@@Stephen-lx9nm true 😆
White British people are gonna become a minority in their own country within a few decades. See how certain ‘communities’ treat you then.
So depressing to see so many towns like this now. 😢 what the hell are they going to be like in 10 years??
This was a fascinating watch Billy,
i coudnt help thinking for such a run down place ,there was no shortage of up market motors !!
Couple of week back i remember seeing disorder on the same street you filmed on.
And wasnt that the roundabout that was going crazy too.
You deserve a lot of respect for filming such places .
Msm will not touch it...
Regards from Thailand and a big hello to brother Joe.
what a cess pit,makes england proud
Just for context that wasn’t Handsworth it was Lozells and One Stop is Perry Barr
My mum was brought up in Lozells in the 1950s, and she remembers it as a nice, strong community area back then, and she used to to tell me how all the neighbours use to keep their doors open so they could pop in for a cuppa. It’s a right sad sight now! Birmingham is just a litter strewn mess and the pride has gone out of people now!
Lozells was a different place then in the 50s & it all changed in the late 70s for the worst ?
I used to go shopping with my mom at Alum Rock, when I was a kid, It as turned into a right shit hole, do they still have the NO WHITES AFTER 8 O'CLOCK signs up!
stop lying about non whites
You must got the wrong area tommy
I remember that sign.... Notorious with Brummies
You chat Shittt . Whites always eat up in alumrock.
Never seen that in all my life in Alum Rock. Any more info on that?
Lozells, this is Lozells! LOZELLS, is on the border's of Handsworth, Birchfield, Newtown, and Hockley.
Named after "Osells" Farm !
Thank u , lozells is lozells !
Gunmakers Walk. Birmingham used to make a lot of guns in Victorian times, then all the little firms got consolidated in Birmingham Small Arms - BSA. Who ended up making motorbikes.
I grew up in handsworth, it was alot worse 20 years ago. Its actually calmer nowadays.
Tell you what mate, for such a deprived area with rubbish in front gardens and walk ways, there's plenty of nice cars around there. That I don't get.
Great video.
Either on finance that can’t be afforded, landlords that rip off the tenants or drug money
That food looks minted mate. Yet again your humility shines through mate. Poor Kirsty 😢 awful to see. I can we can ❤️🔥
Marvin Herbert has gone downhill ,hasn’t he !!!

Brilliant Billy i have family over there keep up the vlogs and opening peoples eyes
You didn't even show handsworth? Should have went to soho road
Next time
Love your vids and he interaction you have with the community. That poor girl (Kirsty) hope she gets herself sorted.
This is my neighbourhood, the amount of drug dealers houses you walked past is unbelievable 😅😅😅😂🎉
No racism here this is just an observation and an opinion the main difference between the Muslim community and the "mainstream" is that they all want to live together they stand together they fight together giving what is a small minority more strength than the majority same as the travelling community (I've seen 10/15 caravans turn up and terrorise a town of 15000 because they stand together) as I say no hate here I respect that
Further more I wouldn't want pitch forks and burning torches but we've lost our community spirit time was England was like these two communities I've mentioned whether gathering at churches or even all out at local pubs or local associations I new everyone's name in my street growing up an they would protect me almost as much as my parents (two of cos yeah fathers count!) Now I live in flats don't know any of my neighbours the local pubs are closed churches empty and the only local association is the food bank where I volunteer
They need to stand together in a muslim country

Why do you feel the need to defend yourself with not being a way cist? Seriously, we're being psychologically manipulated with these magical words they use as weapons to silence us from talking about the problems we now face. The attack is on us, not the other way around.

I grew up in Bordesley Green. As a pale man i had to relocate in 2005 as did every other pale person who had lived and grown up there. Drugs, violence, and the rampant grooming of our daughter's gave us no choice but to go.
No help or assistance from police or government, and NO community leaders to voice our concerns. It's all rotten to the core. Chelmsley wood and Northfield side of Brum is probably the only remaining pale working class area that they can call their community theirs, out of the whole of Brum.
Kingstanding
@@Murf-cz1iv I forgot about Kingstanding! It's been a while since I was in that neck of the woods. I suppose Falcon Lodge in Sutton is still relatively unaffected by it all too. I use to go clubbing with a bunch of lads from Kingstanding back in the 90's, were a good bunch!

Is there any english people in England lol?? What a joke.
More than Irish in Ireland
@Stephen-lx9nm . Hi did u no I'm from Ireland?
Shouldnt have moved out of those areas then. No one forced you all to sell your houses.
Yeah if you look closely you'll see them all passed out on the floor on spice....
How do you live with a brain like yours?
Looks like a city in Grand Theft Auto
Less litter in GTA.
Still got that postcode on my driving license you didnt see the worst for a long shot
That boozer in Alum rock, was called 'The Rock' or its real name, The Alum rock. Played my share of pool in there.
I am sat here crying …In the late 1950s my friend bought a two up and two down a lovely little house in Levenshulme ,her then fiancé was just about to leave the merchant navy and they were to be married…It was a nice clean street with very nice neighbours there was not an Asian or African face in sight,,,,,We used to go dancing to Levenshulme palace on a Wednesday and Saturday…Never ever got drunk no drinks were served in the dance hall…….Why have we allowed this to happen to our once proud country….and why has it happened ………..I think we all know the answer to that don’t we…………….An influx of people that do not have our values and came from countries that are nothing but hell holes,and now our once proud country is a complete shambles and a total disgrace…. . If I was younger I would be out like a shot…….In another twenty years this will no longer be England….GOD HELP US BECAUSE ONE THING IS FOR SURE …….WE DO NEED HIS HELP…..BROKEN BRITAIN….
That looks well rougher than anywhere in Liverpool
For now
It is. This is pure third world shit. That every politician should be made to live in.
Nothing rough about it....just filthy dirty and inhabited by foreigners who like living that way because it reminds them of Pakistan.
@@YouCantKidAKidda Anfield, Kirkdale, Bootle, Norris Green are rough but not this dirty
Its there culture ,areason tb ,cholera and typhoid are making a comeback😂
Ahmad & Williams was a boozer. I lived in alum rock till i was 15, 42 now. it was "The Rock" pub many zulus frequented that place. So many fond memories, it looks depressing now such a shame.
The McDonald's is just up the road from my old senior school "Saltley" in bordesly green 😂 you really took me down memory lane. Thanks Billy.
Use to live hamstead road few mins from villa road glad I’m out
We've watched a lot of your videos and admire how you've turned your life around, wer a couple & know a lot about addiction, we've both been in the grip, hate to have to say this but a few negatives we've shared many of your videos in the past & left positive feedback, didn't like the fact you videos that poor girl she was in no state to consent, also wasn't the fact you knocked back that guy who asked for a quid, but everything's card's these days, you know wer your going couldn't you make sure you've got a pocket of change, we wouldn't go into town without some money to give ,wer not even making videos, your lunch looked nice couldn't you have done without that,just saying , hope to see you being a bit more generous, after all you know what it's like 😊
I grew up in Newtown, which is next to Lozells, the council have never really done much to redevelop innerxity areas . Also by default all immigrants are housed in areas like Handsworth so it becomes a melting pot of cultures. I rate you for giving an unbiased real view of Bham, is a shame to see so many of your viewers are keyboard racists...
Yeah maybe we don't want to become a melting pot.. We were never asked if we wanted this.
We were never asked.
Thanks for doing this marra a light needs to shine on this stuff
This is great work. Bobbies back on the beat would sort a lot of this. New follower.
A lot of rough estates up and down da UK unfortunately and governments don’t give a fuck
Love you bill Iknow you have seen the darkest days just like my self god bless you my boy
This is literally on my doorstep I live about 100 yards from where this is filmed it's certainly grim to say the least however if you keep yourself to yourself and don't get involved in stuff you shouldn't be doing then you'll be fine
Bless that poor girl man :( hope she finds help at some point before it becomes to late. Gunmakers walk has somthing to do with gunmakers from years ago, there is a pub called the gunmakers arms aswell. I could be chatting it and my google searching is weak 😂
Was it not known for gun making in that part of the country.
Next time you in brum shout me ill give you a real tour you was literally outside my house lol
I live in frankley in Birmingham and it's not like any of these areas and it's a council estate yh u get ppl on drugs and stuff but it's a nice area plenty of fields and we got waseley hills and lickey hills not far
Give it time
You think one stops huge 😅 bless ya man...
When you was in alum rock you should of gone into the Saltley inn you’d have gotten some gotten some great stories from the remaining old locals. Its heartbreaking to see Birmingham reduced to this
reduced to what exactly...

Disgusting the Council should clean up!
Birmingham Council has no money there bankrupt literally... sending all the money to Israel and Ukraine
What a wake up call I've seen people on drugs and I've thought it was disgusting but my heart goes out to that poor girl and also the people on the streets the government should make these people a priority its heartbreaking these lives ruined people should not judge them they need help not ignorance
