...”no authority at all”
...”she’s kicked him out”.
Famous last words
Where's the chairman gone?
This is the best British contribution to the internet since Ronnie Pickering.
At least we know who Ronnie Pickering is...
Haha true that
This won't be beaten for quite a few years. The memes will come
🤣🤣🤣
@@dark_dirttv7474 I don’t. Never heard of him. This is the best thing since Fawlty Towers! Absolutely hilarious. More, more!! Self important old retired codgers who want power over people. Idiots, the lot of them.
Read the standing orders. READ THEM AND UNDERSTAND THEM
The chairman of the council, is the chairman of the, err, council.
@@MedievalFolkDance LOL
Well, he has a point. But why on earth get SO furious when saying it? The whole thing, the whole lot of them, are a joke. An utter disgrace.
@@margaretlavender9647 I'm talking to people everyday now and unfortunately , this is how people speak to each other nowadays .
Letting his inner gollum out 😂 "MY PRECIOUS STANDING ORDERS!" 😂
I love how he turns into gollum at the end
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
HAHAHHA
Appalling behaviour 🤣
"You have no authority jackie weaver"
Jackie weaver: "so you have chosen death?"
The chairman of the council is the chairman of the the... Council
The chairman of the council doesn't do what the chairman of the council does for the chairman of the council. The chairman of the council does what the chairman of the council does because the chairman of the council is... the chairman of the council.
The Chairman - pffff - I'm the clerk - you do what I say!
When they're gone... they're gone.
Should be meeting
@@dylankennedy6389 😂🤣😂🤣
John Smith's input to the meeting was brilliant...
John Smith actually ends up chairing the rest of the meeting somehow
John Smith is all of us, and his wonderfully generic *name seems to prove that!
Fr
An underrated line in the Handforth Parish Council highlights,
‘One member has not been to any council meetings in the past six months - the fact that there were no meetings is irrelevant’
Pure Python.
Lol.
Welcome to the Ministry of Clueless Councils.- this will go viral as modern humour is rubbish- top answer Garrick.
If there were no meetings then ALL the councillors have failed to attend the none meeting(s). Does that woman who thinks she is in charge actually need medical/psychiatric help?
lmao, time stamp?
@@studioxgm Unfortunately this video is just a clip of a longer 18 minute video where councillor John Smith makes the remark.
"You have no power here Jackie the Grey" LOTR The Handford Parish Edition
Yes!
You have no power here that is pure meme
2:19 - Even Gollum is out to get Jackie the Grey
@@tonycavanagh1929 then gets kicked out 😂
Tell me friend, when did Aled's Ipad abandon reason for madness
Jackie..... she grows more powerful each day.
That is the problem. Typical of some Parish Council Clerks.
@@lisamartin7846 Is she a clerk? Or is she an officer?
@@benjames5423 Clerk
Is she responsible for spawning numerous Karen's!?
The funniest and most underrated part of this video is when Aled's iPad spontaneously turns into gollum at the prospect of Barry being kicked out
"we're trying to have a team meeting you fool!"
This is actual comedy gold. I need to sign up to this parish council meeting!
John Smith's laugh creases me up every time haha legendary.
He's so me in this type of scenario, laughing my ass off at the drama 🤣🤣🤣
“Did you see that ludicrous display last night?”
Yeh, what was Wenger thinking, bringing Walcott on that early?
fing about arsenal is they always try n walk it in
Mind 'ow you go.
He’s got a pony on Liverpool
They’re avin a laugh
John Smith used to be my driving instructor. I failed 4 times with him.
Hahahahahahaahahahhahahaa
Should have studied the theory test more...READ IT AND UNDERSTAND IT 😅
Carry On Councilling
We always knew the Vicar of Dibley was a documentary
Ahh that was a great show. I've not seen that in ages.
@@Greenpoloboy3 before it went woke
wrong kind of Parish Council the on on the Vicar of Dibley is a Parochial church council
@@tjd18 you're not involved, are you? 😅
@@smoothcortex no but as the vicar of Dibley is set in a church environment and I’m currently studying for ordination I know the difference between a PCC and a PC and the on the tv show is a occ as the clergy member is a member members of the clergy are not allowed to be on councils unless it’s a pcc a rule that’s been in place since 1700s
I haven't witnessed a power struggle like this since Game of Thrones 😂
2:19 did he just turn into a gremlin 🤣😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
HE BECAME SMEAGUL
He's Gollum lol! Filthy councilses!
"Can I ask you to be respectful to Jackie?"
Everyone else - "AHAHAHAHA"
Jackie weaver kicks everyone out of the zoom meeting
"I have bought peace to my new empire"
"Your new empire?"
@@Turbofurby Jackie Weaver "YOU DOUBT MY POWERS!!!"
"Can I ask you to be respectful to Jackie Weaver?"
[cue mocking laughter from all members]
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
'You have no authority here Jackie Weaver! No authority at all!'
'She's just kicked him out'
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Famous last words
It's only the chairman who can remove people from a meeting.
Americans: British people are so posh and civilised
British people:
a literal coup via a Zoom meeting
Im American and no, we don't think that brits are posh, Ive seen so many of u brits say that we think that, and I'm confused as to why u do
@@halal_ibs it's a joke mate and most of you are proper thick to be fair lol
@@dimitriousdrake no I've seen so many comments saying "idiot americans think we're posh" i know in this particular situation that its a joke the way the comment was written, but so many other times u brits actually think that we think ur posh, Ive seen many comments like that and they're actually being serious
@@halal_ibs
Because that's a stereotype that exists, when I lived in America it was very much true. Either posh or cockney.
This lot couldn't run a bath
They'd forget to turn taps off
@@taffymackem2596 They wouldn’t even get round to turning them on in the first place
@@aknee3042 lol pmsl
They couldn't organise a shag in a brothel
@@aknee3042 bold to say they know what taps are.
This is like a cross between the Council of Elrond and Curb Your Enthusiasm
Exactly 😭😭😂😂
More like Peep Show
This comment is pure gold 😂😂😂
''We're trying to have a teams meeting you fool''
someone's got to take "Read the Standing Orders, read them and understand them" and make it into a electronic dance track.

This is a cross between "The Vicar Of Dibley" and a "Monty Python" sketch , British comedy at it's best...!!!!
Looks like a typical Zoom conference call to me.
Who knew, that after the lord of the rings, Gollum would end up as a councillor in Handford Parish of all places.
My paaarrishhh
@@CDMaccles lol I like how precious now appears to be standing orders, since the ring has been destroyed!
I have watched this so many times, absolutely golden
"One can not simply hold a meeting without a Chair" ...
Jackie weaver 😂 love the way they use the full name
“The chairman of the council is the chairman of the ehhh.....”
😂
...council.
For me it's the timing of how the screen switches just as he says Council. I don't know why but that made me f*cking crack up
Council
So this is what happens in old people care home. 😂
Yep, they're not allowed to play Naked Twister anymore so they get all pent up : )
😂😂😂more like a mental institution
Could I ask you to be respectful to Jackie Weaver please
Jackie weaver: i am the parish council
Handworth PC clerk: not yet
In the medieval days,they would have excorcised Mrs Weaver in the village square lol
I love the guys who just sit there quietly and crack up laughing every now and again. Hahaha
When he starts raging at 0:50, I'm dead
The ladies are the only ones staying calm and respectful. I can't believe how the men speak to her, they are so disrespectful 😳
It’s called passive aggression, pretty sure you’ve used it a bunch lol
And shes disrespecting everyone elses positions.
She doesnt have the legal authority to eject members from a meeting, her literal job is to transcribe the meeting and deal with the paperwork.
Would you be calm if she tried overriding you and your job as the chairperson because she didnt like what you were saying?
Plot twist: the person responsible for the rearranging of the village daffodils on the main road roundabout in the shape of a spurting cock was in fact the Chairman.
*spurting 😂
@@Jacob-2796
Hilarious🤣🤣🤣🤣 Always cracks me up when I spot a typo. Or indeed when I hear someone making a grammatical error. I bet you, like me, shout across the room, through tears of laughter, highlighting their small mistake. I bet you've experienced the tears of laughter from the public when they hear the comedy gold you've unearthed. It's comedy genius.
How poorer our culture would be without the contribution from folks like us and our keen eye for tyops.
Ooops I didn't it again!! TYPOS I'm wetting myself!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Weecumtit Village.
Thank you so very much for this!
' The chairman of the council is the chairman of the..ehhh ummmh..council'
And at the end I'm sure Gollum was on council meeting , I heard him in the backround 😳
And he so thought he was whispering 😅
i wonder how these councillors voted in the Brexit referendum?
Ironically probably the same as you
@@Emcfree2084 This is what “ taking back control “ looks like. Enjoying it?
This video has made my week 😂😂👏🏾
Having done a little research, the meeting lasted approximately 1 hour 30 minutes. So could either ITV or BBC by the rights to this meeting and put it on TV for Saturday night viewing. Better still, buy the rights to the live version and put it on TV that way 😋
God!! I was in tears throughout the entire video😂😂😂😂😂
meanwhile the vice-chairmans mums making his lunch in the background 😂
I used to live in Handforth and this isn't a patch on the scraps they used to have in The Mermaid pub, they've all got lockdown fever, bless 'em.
Hanforth making Schitt's Creek Council look like a shining example of local government.
😂😂😂
If you would like to see how to manage a zoom meeting then we reviewed the previous version and showed how it can work better so you can be as good as Jackie Weaver. have a look here: czcams.com/video/hh3yu4bzf8g/video.html
This is simply par for the course at parish council meetings.
I was a local newspaper reporter back in the days when reporters went out and reported, rather than sit in front of computer screens rewriting handouts.
Allegations of criminal activity and fraud were far from uncommon. Procedural wrangling occupied a considerable part of many meetings. Parish clerks, aware of these possibilities, usually inserted an item on the agenda upon which all could agree. Generally this involved the perennial problem of dogs shitting on the pavement.
Afterwards everyone went down the pub and had a good laugh.
Isn’t that,and this, an utter disgrace! Why does anyone bother to vote people like these in ANY committee?
Student politics wasn't much different in my brief experience.
Absolutely hilarious. Not sure if it's QAnon''s cover broken - or genuinely parish councillors, on steroids. Punchline is the Vice Chairman chappie at 2m 20s having a Donald Duck hissy fit at the end! Well done Chairman Weaver for showing decorum and holding it all together.
The council shall decide your fate
Jackie Weaver: I am the council
0:53
My English Literature teacher when I don't understand Shakespeare's plays after studying them for 5 months
I thought that outburst was quite polite - he could have said RTFM! :)
This is funnier than any recent uk sitcom . Pure gold . Someone make a show with these characters
Here comes the subpoena! 😂😂
'You have no authority here Jackie Weaver, no authority at all'
.......
'she's kicked him out'
Fantastic role models for our youngsters!
Good job
what a shambles
Nothing more than a bunch of old people with nothing better to do than give themselves a sense of self entitlement.
@@bobjames6622 never a truer word said.
Big up John Smith
It's dangerously close to the thick of it 🤣
The guy at the end Goes full Gollum from Lord of the Rings 😂 Class!!!
The best part is Aled Sr laughing his ass off
Absolute gold
01:39 "The chairman, the chairman of the Council is the.. is the chairman of.. of the...of the err.. Council" Bruh 🤣
Gillian Anderson to play Jackie Weaver in the Hollywood production of "No Authority?"
Jackie weaver you naughty girl
‘You have no authority here Jackie Weaver! 👹’
‘Go back to the shadow!’ *kicked
I love how Gollum just turns up at the end 2:18 😂
Image having this lot as neighbours 😂
Well, that escalated quickly.
The Guy on Aleds iPad needs anger management sessions
Are they making a new Carry on council film
Respect my authority!
Jackie Weever is taking no prisoners!
I've always thought parish councils were infested with opinionated self-important clowns. Proven. God forbid this lot have any influence over other peoples lives.
2:17 Now we know why it went wrong. They have a lizard among them
"Parish councils have the power to tax their residents to support their operations and to carry out local projects"
Scary to think these councilors have any power at all... it's even scarier, that combined, they have a mean age greater than Stonehenge
How old are you? Have you volunteered for your local Parish Council?
If your answers are "Less than 60" and "No" that's why they're all old.
It does seem to be where old people go who need to feel important but it is worrying they are given any authority.
@@ColinMcNulty You really think these self-important people would respect someone in their 20/30's? I agree there should be more younger volunteers but I doubt their voice would be taken into account.
@@TheMunch97 Yes they would. I'm a local parish councillor. With 1 exception, we're all in our 40's. I'd have no problem with a 20 or 30something joining the council.
Read the standing orders. Read them and UNDERSTAND THEM!
Desperatly waiting for the next episode 😋
Iconic, legendary
Pure gold
These are the people who brought you Brexit, folks...
Town councils did Brexit? What are you on about?
When people ask why I hate living in Cheshire East, I just show them this video.
Try living in Surrey.
This is wonderful and all balls
"here comes the subpoena!"
Old people + technology = ready made comedy
What did I just watch
I don't know, I couldn't bear to watch until the end, did anyone take their clothes off ?
We’re trying to have a Teams meeting, you fool!!!
I TAKE CHARGE
This is what the staff at The Independent look like..lol
Here comes the subpoena!!
In this house we stan Jackie Weaver
Fabulous. I have sat in on a few of those sort of meetings over the years! As for Zoom meetings it helps a heap if the host mutes those not speaking as if you try to rely on people self muting it ain’t going to happen!
Is this a screener for 'Discovering Scarfolk'?
This clerk should never work again.
John Smith is my spirit animal!!
