'You will not speak': Video shows Isle of Wight councillors clash

A council leader ordered a political rival to be silent and tried to evict him from the room during a heated exchange at an authority meeting.

Phil Jordan, in charge of Isle of Wight Council, stood up, pointed his finger and said: "You will not speak", before asking officers to remove Councillor Peter Spink.

Mr Spink shouted: "I will speak", before commenting: "Absolute disgrace."

Mr Jordan told the BBC he rose to keep order and "not in an angry manner".
