Councillor Dean Cohen defends his erm, er, erm, er Parking policies

Here is a clip from last nights council meeting, featuring Councillor Dean Cohen, responding to Councillor Alan Schneidermans proposals for a fairer parking regime for the Boroughs High Street.

See if you can count how many times Councillor Cohen says "Erm" and "Er".



The Barnet Eye counted 79. That amounts to one every 3.6 seconds. There are machine guns that fire bullets slower than that. He should take a few lessons in oratory from Councillor John Hart
