3- What are residents of Birmingham, England called?

1. Mancunians
2. Hair, the musical
3. Brummies
4 Scarborough Fair. East coast, Yorkshire. Lyrics stolen by Paul Simon from a traditional English Folk song. He registered it as his own. Many in Folk Music circles in the UK have never forgiven him for that.

you got there before me, Hetismij.
did you see that the brains at Faux news, having covered themselves in merde over the canard that Brum is a no-go zone, did the same for Paris, with the places too dangerous to frequent being named as Montmartre and Place de la Republique?
My grandad was a brummie and he'd be turning in his grave to hear his home town described thus.
