Greens Want Control of Local Councils

The Green Party wants more greenies in local government! When announcing her intention to stand for the Party leadership, Chloe Swarbrick said, “the focus was not just on the 2026 general election, but on next year’s local body elections“. 

She promised, “to help get more Green-aligned people into local government positions next year”.

Swarbrick’s comments are a useful reminder that radical elements target local council elections and will be doing so again next year.  

The best defence against radicals taking over our local councils is for the public to say “No” to extremism, and support candidates who are prepared to represent the public rather than use the position of privilege to impose their ideology upon others.
