Elections
21 March 2022On Friday, the seat distribution of the city council was announced. What a great result GroenLinks Utrecht achieved this election. DWARS Utrecht is looking forward to a successful campaign, with flyer actions, door-to-door actions and videos by our toppers Julia Kleinrensink, Mahaar Fattal, Marcel Vonk, Nazanin Abdul, Julia Matser. DWARS Utrecht is also very happy to see that GroenLinks in de Bilt, Zeist and Nieuwegein are the biggest. We also thank Maddy Vangangelt from Amersfoort and Jesper Bloem from de Bilt for their cooperation in the campaign. We are immensely proud of the votes secured across the province!
DWARS Utrecht congratulates all candidates who won a seat and may represent GroenLinks in the council for the next four years. We also thank all councillors who have dedicated themselves to Utrecht in the past period. In particular, we would like to thank Sebastiaan Rood and Marcel Vonk. DWARS Utrecht has often worked together with Sebastiaan and Marcel in a pleasant way and we regret not seeing them again in the current council. Marcel's departure leaves a gap in the youth care portfolio. DWARS Utrecht finds it important that the subject remains in the spotlight. This requires a young councillor with knowledge of and passion for the subject to start working on it. DWARS Utrecht is happy to think along with this.Â
The coming period is all about formation. GroenLinks may take the initiative in the coalition negotiations and this makes us feel positive. Utrecht faces major challenges in the coming years. In times of climate crisis, housing shortage and growing inequality, it is important that Utrecht is led by a coalition that is as left-wing as possible. As far as DWARS Utrecht is concerned, governing with the VVD is not an option. Utrecht has many good left-wing parties and we warmly encourage this left-wing cooperation. That is why we urge GroenLinks Utrecht to involve all left-wing parties in the coalition negotiations.
