Birmingham City Council

Uncollected waste is piling up on the city's street as bin workers continue to strike over pay.

Contingency arrangements include increasing opening hours of tips for a second time from Monday.

The council has set up mobile bin collections for residents to unload their waste amid the strike.

Unite boss Sharon Graham tells deputy PM Angela Rayner talks on the industrial action are farcical.

Sir Keir Starmer says he fully supports Birmingham City Council in declaring a major incident.

Bin collections are currently delayed due to strike action that has been ongoing for weeks.

Residents on Birmingham's borders see bins go uncollected as neighbours metres away get them emptied.

Richard Johnson regularly had to fight to get the fines overturned.
