Up the Villa!

Finally, Cllr Waseem Zaffar MBE closed the discussion by outlining the progress made on cleaning the air in Birmingham, and praising Sadiq Khan's work in London.

Supporting Aston Villa is a rollercoaster! Ups and downs, but we're forever determined, forever cheering, and forever hopeful. The journey continues! 🎢🦁 #UTV #AVFC #AstonVilla #VTID #VTWD

This is what community looks like. We spent our Sunday making George's Park a better place for all of us. Check out the video! #LozellsLove #ParkLife #Volunteers

I am boycotting Villa match - over something bigger than football Birmingham City Councillor and Aston Villa season ticket holder Waseem Zaffar MBE spells out why he won't be in the stands for the game with Maccabi Tel Aviv

Why boycott the game I love?
Because some battles are more important than the ones on the pitch. I've written in @birminghamlive.bsky.social about my decision to stand with Palestine by boycotting an Aston Villa match.

Over the last few weeks, our teams have been out and about in Lozells, Aston, Handsworth, Holyhead, Birchfield, and Handsworth Wood.

We've been having important conversations with residents about the issues affecting them and their neighbourhoods. This work happens year-round.

Lozells residents are standing together to tackle fly-tipping! 🤝

Today, I personally visited and reported 41 incidents with photos and specific locations to Birmingham City Council.

Thanks to everyone who helped! #Lozells #FlyTipping #Birmingham

Back at Villa Park cheering on the Three Lions! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Let's go, England! #ThreeLions #EnglandFootball #VillaPark

So much appreciation for Burbury Street in Lozells! It's clear that residents, the broader community, Aspire & Succeed, and countless others have poured years of hard work into making it one of our most vibrant neighbourhood roads. And how amazing are these beautiful new planters?!

Can't believe how much we've missed this feeling. Nothing beats watching our beloved Aston Villa at Villa Park! Hoping for a big win against Newcastle today. Up the Villa! 🦁⚽️ #AVFC #UTV #VTID #VTWD

Football season is nearly here! Backing the mighty Villa as they take on Roma in a friendly being played down the road at Walsall. #AVFC #UTV

Joined thousands of Brummies and fans from afar to pay tribute to the iconic Ozzy Osbourne today. I had the privilege of meeting him just a few weeks ago for the only time—he truly helped put Birmingham on the international map. Thank you and goodbye, Ozzy! What an absolute legend.

Heartbroken to hear the news about Hulk Hogan. He was the hero of my childhood, making me believe in the power of Hulkamania. A true icon who inspired millions. Thank you for the memories, brother. RIP. 🕊️ #HulkHogan #WWEUniverse #Legend

Had such a lovely afternoon at Nowka Bais today! The highlight? Definitely getting to be in one of the boats and seeing so many new & old friends enjoying the best of Bangladeshi music, culture, and sports. What an experience! 🚣‍♀️

Heathfield School is more than just a school to me; it's a legacy. As a former student, a current parent, and Chair of Governors, I see its impact daily. A massive thank you to our staff and parent volunteers for their incredible efforts in making our school greener and more beautiful.

Great day in Lozells! Loved engaging with residents, huge thanks to my amazing colleagues for their support. #Lozells #CommunityEngagement

Taking action in Lozells to boost our low tree canopy! Joined Nick from Kier Highway Service to identify maintenance needs. More trees & better care are a must. 🌱 #LozellsGreening #EnvironmentalAction

It's clear: Birmingham's City Vision puts equality and equity first.

But to truly live up to that, we also need a fundamental shift in our economic approach.

Time to rebalance investment across all of Birmingham, not just downtown.

Your thoughts on this?

Mind blown meeting the founders of heavy metal, Black Sabbath! Ozzy, Geezer, Tony, & Bill were granted the Freedom of the City of Birmingham. Hearing them speak about their enduring love for Aston and our city, despite decades of world tours, was genuinely moving. ✨ #Brum #Ozzy #RockHistory

Witnessing an encouraging resurgence on Lozells Road, Soho Road, and Witton Road high streets! This growth truly highlights our community's potential. Now's the time for a significant increase in direct investment to keep this momentum going. #LocalEconomy #BirminghamHighStreets
