00:01After Birmingham was left with no overall control in the local elections last week,
00:07parties there are holding talks over a possible alliance.
00:11Reform UK became the largest single group on the council,
00:15ahead of the Greens, Labour, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats and Independents.
00:21The result leaves several parties with influence over how the authority is run.
00:26Reform councillor Jex Parkin says his group will try to form an administration,
00:31but says it is too early to speculate on any coalition.
00:35Liberal Democrat leader councillor Roger Harmer says the political split is not unworkable,
00:41although he has ruled out working with Reform UK.
