[neonwilderness]

Has anyone worked out whether she had any authority? Any authority at all?

READ THE STANDING ORDERS!

ladbrookes are offering 3/1 that she doesn't have. william hill, evens.

I have to say that for me at least Handforth Parish Council have immensely cheered up an otherwise miserable week.

And the best bit is that the internet has only just got started on its work.

Nope, it's been featured on both BBC & Sky News this morning.

Must be real then.

 

[danny la rouge]

Watch this space. Full facts investigate.

 

[BigMoaner]

I notice that the mainstream media are not covering this. Fits their narrative that Jackie doesn't have the authority. When are people going to wake up.

I am going have to check out the next meeting of Arun district council, next door to Worthing, because one of their councillors is under attack for blaming 5G masts for spreading covid, I bet that'll be fucking brilliant.

I recently had cause to look into an old associate of my mother's from her Adur PC days (she was the first person I ever voted for (SDLP)). He's the market manager who trousered £35,000 of trader's fees. He always was a weasel and would have been tip-top at not reading, nor understanding, standing orders.

From The history of the Handforth parish council feud

which starts off well but they mainly just seem to have watched the video so unlike the initial promise a disappointing amount of actual background material

There's a feature length Netflix three-parter in this. It could be Tiger King for 2021.

Convicted thief David Steadman.

But the former councillor became the "author of his own downfall" when he suggested the council think about how to run the markets when he retired - and the business experts called in became suspicious about the markets' profits.

Delicious

I think there's a few urban75 threads that would benefit from a re-enactment in the style of a zoom call perhaps with some Handforth PC members playing the key parts.

The full english breakfast thread would be great!

Jackie says in the full vid:
"the meeting has been properly called that in fact two councillors have called the meeting which is quite proper and as a courtesy because the handforth chairman and vice chairman and the fellow councillor joined the meeting, as a courtesy we allowed the chairman to take the chair but now that they have left (lol) it is perfectly appropriate to re-elect a chairman"

They're great aren't they these Cheshire cunts. All the stuck up airs of posh conservative wankers but at the same time they're loud-mouth, uncivilized northeners. Best of both worlds.

She’s not on the Council, so she doesn’t have the authority.

Done

Could you send me a copy of your standing orders as I'd like to read and understand them.

Asking for a friend.
