Two days ago, Greater Manchester Combined Authority told me that they/ Andy Burnham would no longer be commenting on the Arts Council review into Sacha Lord’s company or his resignation (screenshot below). Today, Burnham tells the MEN Lord was treated “very unfairly” by Arts Council. 🧵

when did schools start doing that? cos i don't remember anyone saying it to me lol

What about our cultural present? Because Birmingham City Council has removed all funding for that.

Really looking forward to chatting with Dan Hancox about his latest book at Voce Books on Tuesday! Come along, tix are only £3.

Reach PLC should be ashamed of putting its journos in this position. It's the reporters who get the flack for this stuff even though it's part of the company's strategy. pressgazette.co.uk/the-wire/newsp…

Astonishing stuff from the 🐐mollie simpson x.com/joshi/status/1…

Big news for CBSO's Kazuki Yamada who has been named Conductor of the Year at the Royal Philharmonic Society awards. He said: “This is such a special moment for me. The CBSO is a big family, and I am so happy to be part of it."

From celluloid to cinemas - Birmingham's contribution to film is surprisingly significant. Today's members-only story is about the great Brummie inventors of the 20th Century, by Jon Neale. birminghamdispatch.co.uk/lights-camera-…

The dispatch is looking for a small office in Brum city centre. Something for 2-3 ppl with big windows and lots of natural light. Not corporate vibes. Help!

The council says striking bin workers have been violent. Where's the evidence? birminghamdispatch.co.uk/the-council-sa…

Read my colleague Kate Knowles talking to the The Guardian about Birmingham's bin strikes. Is there any exit from equal pay claims, rising council tax and cratering services? Featuring rubbish bags being thrown into my apartment complex... theguardian.com/world/2025/apr…

Another day, another opinion on the bins! This one is from me for Guardian Opinion theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Any Birmingham planning experts available to chat to me? It's for a story about The Square (bit near the Square Peg pub and Old Square roundabout + Square Shopping Centre)
