🚨 IT’S TIME DARLINGTON RESIDENTS WERE HEARD!

Darlington Conservatives have surveyed thousands of residents, and the message is clear.

Anti-social behaviour, crime and the dangerous, illegal use of off-road bikes are serious concerns across our town.

Residents should be able to enjoy their homes, streets and communities without fear of intimidation, disruption or dangerous behaviour.

Perhaps most concerning is how many residents feel that, despite repeatedly raising these issues, little seems to change.

We believe it’s time to bring everyone together to find solutions.

That’s why we have invited our MPs, the Leader of Darlington Borough Council, the Chief Constable and the Police and Crime Commissioner to an open, non-political community forum.

🗣️ An opportunity for residents to speak directly to those responsible for keeping our communities safe.

We want to understand:

✅ What action is already being taken?

✅ What further steps can be taken to tackle ASB and illegal off-road bikes?

✅ How can we measure progress and ensure residents see real improvements?

This isn’t about politics, criticism or pointing fingers. It’s about listening, working together and finding practical solutions.

We recognise the challenges involved, but residents rightly expect action, accountability and results.

Everyone deserves to feel safe in their own community.

🤝 Let’s bring Darlington together, listen to residents and turn concerns into meaningful action.

💬 What would YOU like to ask those responsible?

💙 Up and down the country, Conservatives are winning elections!

With just under seven months to go until the local elections in Darlington, the choice is clear.

We are the only team with a real plan for Darlington, and the only team getting out in force to speak directly with residents across our town.

We’re taking on Labour next year, and we’re looking for more sensible, common-sense local people who want to get involved.

People who care not just about national politics, but about the issues affecting our communities, improving our neighbourhoods, supporting local businesses and seeing Darlington thrive!

💙 Want to be part of the team? Get in touch!

📚 Far too many young people leave school at 18 without continuing their education or progressing into employment.

🤝 The Conservative Party is the only party that has a feasible plan to get all young people into work.

SIX GREEN PARTY COUNCILLORS. SEVEN QUESTIONS ABOUT ANTISEMITISM. NOT ONE RESPONSE.

We wrote to all six Green Party councillors in Darlington following the Green Party’s October 2026 conference motion entitled “Zionism is Racism”.

The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism explicitly identifies the following as an example of antisemitism:

“Denying the Jewish people their right to self-determination, e.g., by claiming that the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor.”

This distinction matters. Criticising the policies or actions of the Israeli Government is not the same as denying Jewish people their right to national self-determination.

Our email gave each councillor an opportunity to clarify their personal position on antisemitism, Jewish self-determination and the rights and safety of Jewish communities.

We gave them five days to respond. According to our records, all six failed to do so.

These are the seven questions we put to them:

1. Do you personally support or oppose the Green Party’s October 2026 conference motion entitled “Zionism is Racism”?

2. Do you accept the IHRA working definition of antisemitism, including its example concerning the denial of Jewish self-determination?

3. Do you believe that the Green Party’s newly adopted anti-Zionist policy is compatible with the IHRA definition, and what is the basis for your position?

4. Do you recognise the Jewish people’s historic and ancestral connection to Israel and their right to national self-determination?

5. Do you recognise the State of Israel’s right to exist as a sovereign nation and its right to defend its citizens against terrorism and armed attacks, in accordance with international law?

6. Will you publicly condemn antisemitism, including harassment, intimidation or discrimination directed at Jewish people because of their identity, their support for Israel’s existence or their personal connection to Israel?

7. Will you make your position on the conference motion publicly available to the residents you represent?

⸻

THE CENTRAL QUESTION REMAINS UNANSWERED: WILL ALL SIX COUNCILLORS PUBLICLY AND UNEQUIVOCALLY CONDEMN ANTISEMITISM?

Antisemitism is racism. Questions about it should be treated with the same seriousness as questions about any other form of racial or religious hatred.

We therefore ask each of Darlington’s six Green Party councillors to explain their position publicly.

Do you condemn antisemitism unequivocally? Do you support your party’s conference motion? And why have you not responded to the questions put to you?

These questions remain open. Residents deserve the opportunity to hear the answers directly from their elected representatives.

Labour’s debt, Britain's bill.

⚠️ The reckless economic decisions being made by Labour today will impact the lives of millions to come.

Our grandchildren shouldn't be picking up the benefits bill from 2 generations ago.

🌳 Only The Conservatives have provided sound and measured policy to get our economy back on track.
