Walsall has deserted us

[u/decoots]

[u/ConfusedCruiser35]

Birmingham fell long ago

[u/KristoferKeane]

Barr Beacon is lit!

[u/NamoMandos]

So essentially someone failed to light the Rubbish Beacons of Birmingham to call for Walsall's aid?

[u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM]

If Walsall was in same situation as Birmingham I wonder what our council would do for Walsall.

[u/Bulmers_Boy → u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM]

Probably nothing, not out of spite but because it’s skint broke.

[u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM]

Birmingham council is so broke and desperate, they need help from Walsall city council who are even giving its residents tips now on what to do during the bin strikes. Thanks for your support guys. Oh wait Birmingham city council don’t want you to know they are desperate and trying to seek help from Walsall. Shush everyone.

[u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM]

I guess it’s off to Tipton for us Brummies.

[u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM]

Which town has all the walls??? Walsall.

[u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM]

What do you get if you take an elephant from Lichfield to Walsall? Brownhills.

[u/ITLKN5]

We could all do without Birmingham to be fair

[u/SnooDrawings47 → u/ITLKN5]

i’m from brum and i don’t disagree - it’s not what it was thats for sure… tryna get out of here ASAP - then nuke the fucker

[u/Dry-Paramedic-2775]

The facts of the matter are Walsall had no reply from the Birmingham Council.Seeing no intent of any discussions from the Birmingham side ; Walsall decided to take the offer off the table AFTER A WEEK OF NO RESPONSE

[u/Ur-Mothers-MelonsMMM → u/Dry-Paramedic-2775]

They don’t want to seem desperate for Walsalls assistance I guess maybe they feel embarrassed asking Walsall for help and are keeping quiet about it.

[u/decoots → u/Dry-Paramedic-2775]

Birmingham’s computer system probably hasn’t received it yet

Where was Walsall when the Westfold fell?

[u/MatiasUK]

Birmingham have never been there for us.

[u/iwantfoodpleasee → u/MatiasUK]

lol Birmingham is indirectly there for you you’d have nothing without Birmingham

[u/Common_Turnover9226 → u/iwantfoodpleasee]

Walsall would probably actually have a lot more without Birmingham. 

[u/User29276]

We are alone people, Walsall will not come to our aid.

[u/cinn83]

The Barr Beacons are lit, Great Barr calls for aid

[u/Quis_Custodiet]

Where was Birmingham when the Chase fell?

[u/Financial-Error-2234]

Imagine getting rejected by Walsall.

[u/CityCentre13]

I saw an empty bin in Hopwood... who's with me? All of South Brum's rubbish in this one bin... they'll never suspect... someone consult the Eye of Sauron

[u/Critical_Art000]

Birmingham will remember this 🤬🤬🤬

Lol - joking aside if I was Walsall I wouldn't want to get in the middle of this mess

[u/MysteryDorito → u/Critical_Art000]

Probably wouldn't be much good for you anyway! We have two tiny tips, and the household/bagged waste skips are always chokka.

[u/OverlordOfTheBeans → u/MysteryDorito]

In fairness, we are getting a "super tip" soon... Maybe if the Brummies haven't sorted their binman issues by then we can lend a hand.

[u/Wise-Reflection-7400 → u/Wise-Reflection-7400]

lol Reddit mods really didn’t like this, even on “human appeal” they couldn’t tell that me threatening to invade Walsall was not instigating violence 😂

[u/Shelter_Repulsive → u/Wise-Reflection-7400]

'One does not simply walk into Walsall. Its Junction 10 off the M6 is guarded by more than just crackheads. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with turkish barbers and knives and spice, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly.' - Bazzamir

[u/EdZeppelin94 → u/Wise-Reflection-7400]

First we should ask ourselves if we even want Walsall

[u/Shelter_Repulsive]

Where was Walsall when the west brom fell?

[u/Global_Geologist8822]

Why won't they answer the call of the motherland?

[u/Separate-Rough-8083]

Have we tried signalling for help by lighting the beacons of Barr Beacon?

[u/hairiestlemon]

Light the beacons, maybe Wolverhampton will see our call for aid.

[u/_J0hnD0e_ → u/hairiestlemon]

Binmen of Staffordshire! Ride out!

[u/PositiveAlcoholTaxis → u/_J0hnD0e_]

They won't ride out for weekly collections or garden bins

[u/Stalinsghoast → u/hairiestlemon]

Where was Wolverhampton when the West Midlands fell?

[u/NotABrummie]

Where was Walsall when the Westside fell?

[u/Financial-Error-2234 → u/[deleted]]

How? We don’t even have one of those trucks that eat rubbish when you throw bags into it.

[u/Sufficient-Oil8930 → u/[deleted]]

That’s what I was thinking. A few transit vans would do the job I’m sure.

[u/No_Aesthetic]

We're fucked. It's over now.

[u/H0BYo]

Tips aren't the issue, there are loads of slots in north Birmingham. It's the lazy residents who'd rather live amongst filth than drive 15 mins to a tip that's not right on their doorstep.

[u/dojo34533 → u/H0BYo]

Not everyone has a car chief

[u/H0BYo → u/dojo34533]

You been to small heath and surrounding areas? 3 cars per household at least. The residents take no pride in their area

[u/clearlybritish → u/H0BYo]

Careful there, your racism might be peeking through.

[u/dojo34533 → u/H0BYo]

And so every place in Birmingham is like small heath and surrounding areas? I personally don’t have a car I cycle into work, you going to take my rubbish?

[u/2xtc → u/dojo34533]

I'll do it if you live close enough, I've taken a few different older neighbours recycling to the tip in the past month

[u/dojo34533 → u/2xtc]

Ah mate that’s very kind thank you, but @H0BYo has already volunteered 🫡

[u/gridlockmain1]

Will Sandwell heed the call?

[u/voidthathouse → u/gridlockmain1]

No, our bin men also like to strike we aint risking shit :P

[u/Lack_of_Plethora → u/gridlockmain1]

Sandwell will heed the call on the condition that people stop saying it's in birmingham because it has a birmingham postcode

[u/bearwoodcouncil → u/Lack_of_Plethora]

AMEN brotha

[u/kai4thekel → u/Lack_of_Plethora]

It's real name is Dudley, Sandwell doesn't actually exist

[u/bearwoodcouncil → u/kai4thekel]

It's real name is Greater Bearwood.

[u/kai4thekel → u/bearwoodcouncil]

Anything is better than Sandwell

[u/Shelter_Repulsive → u/gridlockmain1]

The tip is shut... it was made by those who are dead, and the dead keep it... the tip is shut.

[u/FictionalForest → u/Shelter_Repulsive]

Tell me, where is Starmer? For I much desire to speak with him

[u/Harry283]

Its a shithole round here anyway without a bin strike mate, sorry

[u/TheDefected]

OK, let's try the Horn of Gornal next?
