Icon and queen of local democracy Jackie Weaver has blessed the internet once again – this time by getting involved in the hair and beauty scene.
Posting on Twitter, the Handforth Parish council star delighted fans for their opinion on how she should she should style her locks.
“Opinions please – curly or straight?” she asked, accompanied by two illustrative selfies.
Her personal query was met with a flood of responses, racking up more than 15,000 likes and 2,900 responses in less than a day.
Reacting to her barnet, people questioned whether they had the “authority” to offer such advice.

Others, including MTV, said she would look great either way, leading to a little flirtation:

So it is a good job it seems she has managed to wangle some free hair products:

Weaver revealed that she might get a full ‘60s beehive next.
While, in other comments, she disappointed some people by confirming that she doesn’t have an OnlyFans account.
But, she said, she will soon be launching a podcast in which she will answer people’s dilemmas.

Weaver shot to notoriety after arguing with the chair of Handforth Parish council, Cheshire, Brian Tolver, who said she had “no authority whatsoever” during a meeting in December.
She removed Tolver from the Zoom call and placed him in a virtual waiting room after he shouted at her about her level of “authority”. He has recently revealed he is quitting the council.
Vice-chairman Aled Brewerton also shouted: “Read the standing orders. Read them and understand them,” causing the meeting to descend into chaos and arguments – much to the delight of those on social media.
One thing Weaver’s proved is that she not only has nerves of steel, but she’s also a Jackie of all trades.
