How glad am I after removing them from my news feed results on Google. No more clicking on false headlines with minimal content, trying to get detail when it's all full of lazy journalism filler. A... See more

Too much misleading clickbait: Warning this....Beware that.....Everyone something or other need to do this by such a date. Then articles turn out to be non-news overflowing with scam ads.

Read Birmingham live Woke news about…

If you want to hear Woke news about being fined looking at your watch. Or that it is 100% that we will have to pay to drive per mile.
Read this load of crap from Birmingham live. I am trying hard to remove the rubbish news from some of the worst reporters on the planet the articles are only to earn click ratings. Absolutely crap.

MIsleading journalism

There are laws against acting in a way that causes distress. The clickbait headlines that rarely reflect the true balance of the story, that are the norm in this paper, must surely come under this legislation. If I could afford the court case, I'd test this in law.

Clickbait "headlines"

Literally every single headline is clickbait! Aimed almost entirely at motorists and people on benefits..... one of the more recent ones was "you must have this item in your car or risk a £5k fine!" What was this essential item? SUNGLASSES 👓 As if the police are going to stop motorists on a sunny day and fine them for not having sunglasses in the car! They have far more important things to do. If I could get rid of these fake headlines I would, they literally drive me round the bend!!

Should be called Birmingham spam

Sick of getting notifications about absolute irrelevant news like you must do this or get banned from driving. So worried I check it out and it's car insurance has gone up by 2% this is not news worthy of such scaremongering

Universal Credit Payments & Cost of living payments

I want to know why I keep reading reports about both regular payments & cost of living payments from Birmingham live being made & shown on Google ( which incidentally is not anywhere near wher I live in Oxfordshire). I am getting tired of reading these news reports and seeing no evicence of any Universal Credit payments, other than my regular monthly ones going into my bank account. Either these reports (the most likely) are for residents of Birmingham only or they are totally false because they are very misleading and lead to those claiming Universal Cedit into a false sense of security regarding said payments...If payments are to be made, people receiving thes payments should see evidence of them..Otherwise stop reporting Fake news on the subject!!!!!!

Right wing rag

Right wing rag. Using garbage from GB news and other far right sources.
Trying to frighten stupid people who know no better.

Tabloid, not news or informative

I've been getting Birmingham Live articles suggested in Apple News+, so I blocked the outlet.
It seems they're obsessed with making the public angry rather than keeping them informed. The latest example is how “Amsterdam going against Brits” insinuates that only Brits will be affected by the new tourist charges when they are actually for tourists, regardless of where they come from.
They were sharing funny Spanish videos where they were making fun, but of British stereotypes, presenting them as hatred against us in the continent.
It's not journalism a local outlet that could serve local interests and voices.

What an absolute joke this so called…

What an absolute joke this so called journalism is. Even if done on purpose it’s not even funny, an absolute shizzle stain on society. Try at least writing something ironic or with a hint of sarcasm or wit instead of being complete tw@ts.
