So you say people have been stabbed in Birmingham, but nothing has been in the local news to say so, so people have been stabbed in Moss Side and Londons East End and there are no more racist people in Birmingham than any where else and Birmingham is one of the most tolerent Cities in the UK.

    You missed Sutton Coldfield . It is the poshest part of Birmingham and Sutton Park is the largest urban park in the UK.
    The Sutton Coldfield suburb of Four Oaks is the safest place in the whole of Birmingham.
    There is a massive shortage of council housing in Birmingham as in the rest of the UK, you need to register with the council then bid on each property , the waiting list is long.
