Birmingham Local Conservatives have today set out their priorities for any discussion on a new administration to run Birmingham City Council following a set of election results that left Birmingham City Council with no party even 50% of the way to having a majority. It is clear that Birmingham desperately needs change. From being voted the cleanest city in Britain in 2007 under the previous Conservative and Lib Dem administration, Birmingham is now associated with rats and rubbish in the world’s media. Birmingham Local Conservatives have over a 180 years of Council experience, along with decades of Leadership experience, nationally and locally, and have the solutions to fix Birmingham and clean up the city. We stand ready to work with those willing to put the city first.

 

Cllr Robert Alden, said:

Birmingham has spoken and the result is a Council with no one near control. But the issues facing Birmingham remain. A Council in financial distress, a bin strike that has been running for 17 months, and a range of issues from badly run exempt accommodation to continuing equal pay issues. The onus is now on all elected Councillors to use their mandate for their area to find where there is a way to produce a stable administration to finally clean up Birmingham and the City Council.
