Birmingham has for so long been the butt of jokes but I really hope this is where the line is drawn and we can move upwards. I’ve lived here all my life and wouldn’t move for anything.
Still is the butt jokes no matter how you fix it up you cannot take away the scum in it and how bad other areas of Birmingham is and how dumpy areas are.
I'm also born and raised in Birmingham, and I have seen a lot off changes to the centre of the city centre. I absolutely love my city and I really just get pis**d of with the way the government is 4 ever pumping money into London. I mean yeah I get that it's the capital and all that but I have also seen Manchester get a lot more in the way from the government in the past few years also. But we are still the second city (4 now anyway) and I am very happy to see us getting the commonwealth games in 2022. At least now we can show what the City is all about.
Stop hating on London because no one cares London is first class progressive city . Birmingham is look down upon because of the accent and the people are very backwards in Thier mentality and not progressive .
Yeah right o.k. m8, if u say so . Is that y there seems to be a lot of people from London who I keep seeing moving up here. Yeah they say it's cheaper but there's hundreds of other places they can go but no they decide on coming up here. Y ? I will tell you y and that's because it's kicking up here. We got 1 off the best night life scene's right now as well.
@@jadasmith1977 Where do you get your crap from, I bet you have never been to Birmingham and the only time you have heard the Birmingham Accent is a falsified Birmingham accent on TV, to begin with most people mix the Birmingham accent up with a black Country Dudley accent which is deeper than Brummie and in most cases you would not recognize a Birmingham accent as believe it or not I have spoken to people and they did not think I was a Brummie, so you accent business is rubbish as a lot of people do like it, next where do you get the idea Birmingham are backward in mentality and not progressive, if Birmingham was so backward and not progressive how is famous people came from Birmingham, the Chamberlain Family, cadbury Family, Austin family of Austin Cars fame, Birds Custard, Tolkien wrote Lord of the Rings in Birmingham, we have the Largest Lending Library in Europe, the Largest Primark store in the World, The Birmingham Royal Ballet formerly The Royal Ballet of Saddlers wells, it is the HQ of the Sealife empire, the Largest Council in Europe, the youngest City in age and the second largest City in the UK, so do not insult a City unless you have visited it or get to know the people of that City.
@@jadasmith1977 Sorry Jade Smith, you say our accent, well every one gets our accent wrong a mixes it up with a Black Country accent and talking of accents, other accents that sound crap then, Cornish, Liverpudlian, Belfast, East London, Scottish and Northern Ireland in general and no the Birmingham people are not not backward in their mentality or not progressive, love to know where you got that idea from.
Birmingham needs no advice from anyone, Birmingham sees what they are upto, why would this beautiful City want to be like them or anyone, its unique in its own way & thank you GOD this Country has a beautiful green heart 💚
Someone or some people has got it in for Birmingham one of the greatest cities on earth for its history...every major development has gone to London at the extra cost of the public purse...Birmingham is 20 years behind because of these people who for some reason don't want it to develop to its potential but having said that due to Current climate change Birmingham is weatherproof than any other city in UK meaning if the ice caps melted Birmingham would be an island, you get the picture
From engineering City, manufacturing City, city with its own hallmark...more rivers than Venice CITY OF THOUSAND TRADE, To be side lined, we need a referendum
Its actually worse than you describe. Birmingham was the second fastest growing city in the 50s but in an attempt to spread its wealth around to the north the socialist labour government banned office expansion: spatial-economics.blogspot.com/2013/05/booming-birmingham-and-need-for.html?m=1
Who are these people deciding the architecture of Birmingham? The Bullring and almost every other building outside of Broad Street that has been recently erected are monstrosities. The V Tower looked good!
The McClaren building, who ever gave the green light to that bricked monstrosity alongside it, find them & sack them, now that ugly building should be pulled down, out of character with Brum 💚
@@davidsivills3599 So is Birmingham, it has had a load of tall Buildings / Skyscrapers since the early 70's which are not shown on this video concentrating around Arena Central and the ICC / Symphony Hall area, and a lot are in the pipeline to be built in the next 5 to 10 years. Birmingham has always been well known for tall buildings. This video is not comparing Cities and tall buildings it is to show you the new building development at Arena Central. If you want to see how Birmingham looks and its array of tall buildings there are plenty of aerial views of the whole of Birmingham City Centre using a drone on you tube.
Arena Central is an absolute S-hole to work in and is loathed by the staff that were moved there. It is like a lot of other modern developments, bright and shiny, with lots of money wasted, but poorly thought out and impractical.
Birmingham is always look down upon,badly run council who spends money in the wrong places ,crime and lots of poverty in Birmingham no wonder the city is looked down upon ,cuts and austerity for decades areas areas outside of city centre are run down and segregated people in Birmingham and West Midlands are very backwards and uneducated people are not progressive as a city no integration or sense of community , no wonder the place is going downhill too me it's a rough city and region and disliked as well as the accent too grates on people.
So Sarah Femi, where is your proof as apparently you do not live in Birmingham as there is no more poverty in Birmingham than any other City and it is far from being rough, again some one who knows sod all about Birmingham
@sanjay j where’s all this hate for Birmingham come from? Did you have a bad experience? Even JRRTolkien called himself a Brummie! Washington Irving wrote The Legend if Sleepy Hollow in the city. And canalboats in the U.K. have grown by 200% and Birmingham has now become the epicentre of this new narrow boat market! It’s boom time in Birmingham and your just going to have to deal with it! I would happily show you around but from the way your acting you seem the most judgmental person I’ve ever come across! Google Kings Norton Medieval Church, Universityof Birmingham, St. Chad’s Cathedral (Pugin) , St Phillip’s Cathedral, The Birmingham Oratory (Tolkien), Oscott College, Sarehole Mill (Tolkien), Aston Hall, Moseley Village, Perriot’s Folly (Tolkien) the world famous NEW ST AND BROAD ST! If that doesn’t open your eyes nothing will!
Well that was proven wrong when Birmingham held the Commonwealth Games in 2022, people from all over the Country and the Commonwealth who had never visited Birmingham and had only read of bad comments on Birmingham were totally surprised when the visited Birmingam of how modern and friendly Birmingham is. I bet you have never visited Birmingham in your life.

With this and hs2 I hope the future is bright for birmingham. I love the city
Hs2 is probably to take Birmingham's finance's out quicker
HS2 is a joke why trying to connect London and Birmingham and Manchester and the rest of the UK.
@@johnclark7065 why try and connect the uks 3 biggest cities? i dont get it
Birmingham looks a lot better now than in recent years good job people.
Was a shithole even in 2015.

Birmingham needs to grow taller, perhaps take a cue from Manchester if not London itself
Look at the video from above, Birmingham is tall and does not need any advice from Manchester.

As a Brummie I disagree, that building is very much in character with town 😂
I know what you're saying though, it's definitely not pretty.
Still not enough people living in the centre, it's a ghost town after six o'clock!
I can't be the only one who prefers the big run down boxes to expenive posh flats.. 😳
Birmingham city centre is Only 5 minutes far from my house
Birmingham is lacking really tall buildings it needs skyscrapers,it's being left behind by London and Manchester.
May be London, but definitely not Manchester.
@@peterwilliamallen1063 Have you seen Manchester skyline recently,they are in a building boom and building some really tall buildings.

**quickly lowers hands so as not to anger RUclipsrs 😂**
Thanks for the feedback ppp pickle - duty noted 😁
The buildings in Birmingham look like stunted skyscapers.
Follow the money.....

Birmingham just doesn't seem to have the culture appeal or pull of other cities.
