There's only one man you need to speak to to understand the essence of IDOB: a delightful American named Randell H Spackman. Meet him in today's story: birminghamdispatch.co.uk/p/ae3e38c1-db2…
On Thursday, hundreds of cityfolk on their lunch breaks stormed the council building like insurgents. Why? The answer is simple. It’s the most culturally significant day of the year: International Day of Birmingham.
We’ve also played somewhat fast and loose with the definitions: including any Indian food spot where drinking is not just optional, but pretty much integral.
Today’s story is about us going to the desi pubs, eating the sizzlers and drinking the cobra. And then deciding which ones are best and ranking them. birminghamdispatch.co.uk/the-ultimate-c…
Last year, we wrote about the desi pub and its unstoppable rise. That article included the history, the politics, the culture, and even the role of the desi pub as a place of “multicultural intersection”. We won't be bothering with any of that today.
The discounts will be gone by Monday. Head here to sign up now: birminghamdispatch.co.uk/lets-hit-2000-…
We're aiming to hit 2,000 paying members by Sunday! With that in mind, we're offering fully-fledged Dispatch memberships for a fraction of what you'd usually pay.
@danielcave_ But, against a backdrop of criticism that the gallery is neglecting its 800,000-strong collection of works, is this show about art or about the pulling power of Lycett’s celeb? And what does that say about where Birmingham’s culture is? birminghamdispatch.co.uk/joe-lycett-is-…
Joe Lycett's EVERYTHING MUST GO, on at BMAG until next Feb, is "a palette of bold, lurid colours and jaunty millennial sass" writes @danielcave_
To get the discount - and access to all of our independent journalism - head here before the week ends: birminghamdispatch.co.uk/lets-hit-2000-…
The Dispatch is turning 3! To celebrate, we are offering a short-term deal so we can get to more then 2,000 paying members by Sunday night.
The offers expire Sunday night so get em while you can.
We are aiming to hit at least 2,000 paying members in time for our birthday next month. For the rest of this week, you can get a full Dispatch subscription for £4 for the first two months, or, just £60 for a full year. birminghamdispatch.co.uk/lets-hit-2000-…
It has almost been 3 years since I launched @brumdispatch (mad) and we want to get to 2,000 paying members by the end of this week. birminghamdispatch.co.uk/lets-hit-2000-…
“I take the concerns raised about Art.Quarter seriously and believe that anyone making a complaint deserves to have it properly considered,” Patel told The Dispatch. Read the full story on our site:
But not everyone is sympathetic. A few weeks before the fire, a letter began to circulate. It outlined serious claim by more than 12 staff members ranging from: “threatening, coercive, intimidating and abusive behaviour towards women” to “significant unpaid wages”.
Art.Quarter was a creative hub in Digbeth and the UK’s first, fully-halal food hall. Two Thursdays ago, the business went up in flames. Now concerning allegations by former staff members have emerged about Jordan Patel, the 48-year-old entrepreneur who founded the organisaion.
Incase you missed 👀 We delved into the row over Brum's 20mph speed limit. For some the move is sensible. For others, it is a disgraceful "war on drivers", that could prove economically devastating. What are your thoughts? 🚗 birminghamdispatch.co.uk/not-fast-but-f…
