    What do you get if you put a bunch of mostly older folk, who form part of a town council, on Zoom for a meeting?

    A bizarre and viral video which descends into chaos amidst name-calling, apparently.

    The Handforth Parish Council meeting actually took place on December 10, but it was only over the past week that it became a smash hit on social media, with ‘Jackie Weaver’ soon trending.

    More details from The Independent:

    The meeting on December 10 was the second time chair Brian Tolver had been removed, having previously been evicted from the earlier 7pm Planning and Environment Committee.

    The 7.30pm extraordinary meeting began with an unseen councillor mumbling “f*** off” under their breath.

    Mr Tolver refused to recognise the legitimacy of both meetings.

    He told meeting clerk Jackie Weaver, from the Cheshire Association of Local Councils, to “stop talking” and “you have no authority here”.

    In response, Jackie Weaver removed Mr Tolver from the Zoom call and placed him in a virtual waiting room.

    This one is best enjoyed without spoilers, so observe the chaos of the meeting spliced into a three-and-a-half-minute highlights reel:

    If you remember one thing, remember that Jackie Weaver has no authority here.

    All that, and not a single person asking if they’re on mute – nature is healing.

    So, what the ruddy heck is actually happening here? Let’s get Jackie herself in to explain how and why the wheels came off.

    You can hear her from the one-minute mark:

    CNN even has a breakdown of what came before, and has happened since, here.

    To finish, if you’re really looking to kill some time, here’s the meeting in full:
