@itvnews: A two billion pound plan to transform one of Birmingham’s biggest inner-city neighbourhoods has collapsed - more than 15 years after the regeneration was first proposed. The council and developer behind the Ladywood scheme admit it’s no longer financially viable. For years, hundreds of families have lived under the threat of losing their homes to demolition. Now, with the plans in ruins, some are celebrating - while others fear being left behind. #politics #birmingham #birminghamcouncil

Gov needs to send in a team of forensic accountants. In 7 years alone, the council have p*ssed up the wall : Equal pay settlements (£1.1bn paid historically plus ~£250m agreed in the late 2025 union settlement) Agency&interim staff (~£565 million) Perry Barr Athletes' Village (320 million (net loss,Missed 2022 Games deadline; sold off at a heavy loss with 40-year debt repayments) Clean Air Zone Fines( £470,000+ Paid by the council to itself for 3,262 breaches by its own fleet) External Consultants( £62 million Spent on external advisors over a five-year period) Oracle IT Overhaul(£144m – £216m Balloooned from a £19m budget; crippled financial tracking for years)
