💚 We were proud to support the motion on ethical procurement at the recent City Council meeting.

Councillors Ed Freshwater and Duncan Ali proposed an amendment that expanded the motion's commitment to state that the Council should be able to scrutinise suppliers and supply chain.

Taxpayer money should not support those who contribute to human rights abuses.

Taxpayer money belongs to Birmingham and we have a responsibility to make sure it's used ethically.

💚 Introducing Shaun Allen-Dooley, your Green Party candidate for Shard End.

Shaun is a teacher and tutor to children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) across the city. He's committed to fighting for all of Shard End's residents.

Shard End doesn’t need more of the same with Labour or Reform. It’s time to be heard and vote for real change.

Joe's shaved his beard off. Are you shaving yours for Movember? It's a great way to start the conversation around men's mental health.

This November Green Councillors are raising awareness and money for men's mental health. Link is in our bio to the Birmingham Green Teams page.

16 years of Tory and Labour austerity has cut Birminghams budget to the bone.

£120 million is needed every year for Birmingham's budget to stand still. The Labour Government needs to fund local government properly rather than pushing around the same small funding pot.

On the 22nd October the Conservative Group wrongly claimed that Councillor Fowler did not submit her declaration of interest. To be clear: Councillor Fowler submitted her declaration of interests before the legal deadline, and we have clear evidence of her having done so.

We have raised the technical and administrative issue again with the Monitoring Officer and are pleased to see this has been corrected as of 23rd October. We note the Conservatives have now corrected the record.

As well as being a legal requirement, it is crucial for trust in politics that councillors submit declarations of interest. Failing to declare interests undermines public trust, as does inaccurate claims that councillors have failed comply with statutory requirements. Green councillors will continue to work collaboratively cross party in good faith for the good of the city.

Councillor Jane Baston and Councillor Julien Pritchard have written to the Birmingham Reform Group Leader to raise concerns following the recent ITV documentary and the deeply racist and Islamophobia comments from former Birmingham Reform Councillor.

Residents of this City deserve to have answers about how Reform are ensuring that no other Councillors within their party hold racist, Islamaphobic or misogynistic views.

Burials grounds and crematoria are deeply important for those who have lost loved ones in Birmingham.

Reform don't clearly don't care about local services that matter to residents.

Exempt accommodation has been having a profound impact on residents across Birmingham. We're committed to cracking down on rogue landlords and making our communities safer.

Cllr Atikur Rahman said: "Andy Burnham needs to act. He needs to bring in stronger regulation, give us planning powers and the funding to deal with this crisis. This needs to happen now, not in 2027."

We're appalled by the deeply racist and misognyist comments of Reform Councillors that were aired by ITV last night, including from a former Birmingham Reform Councillor. These views should have no place in Birmingham and Councillor Feeney should resign.
