Popular local parliamentary spokesman Cllr Robert Alden said “please support our campaign by signing the petition below”.

Did you know - The Labour Council are spending £64 Million on Wheelie bins while cutting 80% of Erdington’s School Crossing Wardens to save just £80,000. This is less than 1/800th of the total Labour are spending on Wheelie Bins across Birmingham! While Birmingham is given £42 Million a week by the Government to ensure the future of services like School Crossing Patrols.
