  • Andy Street Manifesto 2021
    I will do everything “in my power to restore pride in the West Midlands 2 ” MY APPROACH TO THE JOB OF WEST MIDLANDS MAYOR Over the last four years, we had started to see the West Midlands reclaim its rightful place as a thriving and economically successful region. But the region has been particularly hard hit by the COVID pandemic, and there is much more to do to make sure that we don’t throw away those years of progress. As we get ready to show off the West Midlands to the world with Coventry City of Culture this year and the Birmingham Commonwealth Games next year, we must rebuild a successful economy, where the benefits of growth are shared with everyone. On 4 May 2017, I was honoured to be elected as the first Mayor of the West Midlands, representing around three million people across Birmingham, Coventry, Solihull and the Black Country. The job of the Mayor is to tackle the local issues which affect people in the region: ● Sorting out the local transport system ● Building more homes in the region ● Providing young people with the skills they need to get a good career ● Bringing in new jobs and businesses ● Securing more investment from Government and beyond ● Championing the West Midlands at every opportunity It’s a big job, with responsibility for overseeing billions of pounds of investment, and the ability to attract billions more. I have taken the skills that I learnt in business, during my thirty-year career at John Lewis, and applied them to the job of Mayor.

Villa Sweden Fan Club makes one trip per year to Birmingham. The trip normally attracts some 50-70 members. Any comments, and new information you would like to add, can be seen to [email protected]. Pls state “Travel Guide” in the subject line/heading. Aston Villa related things to do and see in Birmingham, in no particular order. 1. Go to Villa Park – obviously….. How do I get to Villa Park?: http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/GettingToVillaPark/0,,10265,00.html If you’ll be taking the train, a piece of advice is to buy a return ticket. Or have very many coins for the ticket machines in the Witton/Aston unmanned train stations. 2. Take a Villa Park tour… you should if you can….. http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/StadiumTours 3. Visit the McGregor Statue outside Villa Park. He’s not the founder, but a true Villa hero…. http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/HistoryMcGregor http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/mobile/uk_news/england/west_midlands/8377219.stm “In 2008, the Aston Villa Supporters' Trust announced plans to further honour him with a bronze statue outside the stadium.
