Cllr David Buckley (Reform UK) – also known as Dave Buckley and David John Buckley is continuing his futile and unsubstantiated claim that Datchet Parish Council is the DRCCT sole trustee.\u00a0 David – in his position as Chair of Datchet Parish Council and with the support of the Clerk and some Councillors (named here<\/a><\/strong>)<\/span> – is of course using Datchet Parish Council money (total estimated cost = \u00a369k) and resources to progress his claim.\u00a0 You will find the estimated costings at the bottom of this page.\u00a0 This information is clearly marked CONFIDENTIAL<\/strong><\/span> but my view is that the public interest is better served by publication.<\/p>\n

\n

The April 2025 DPC document states as follows:\u00a0 DPC Chairman David Buckley said \u2013 \u201cDatchet Parish Council remains committed to the<\/em><\/strong>
\nobjectives of the Datchet Recreation Centre Charitable Trust and to ensuring that the Sabatini<\/em><\/strong>
\nLand and its facilities continue to benefit the community for which they were intended.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>
\nThese are the DPC members that voted for this action \u2013 David Buckley, Darren Sanders, Caroline Wise, Andrew Clemins, Susan Young, Ian Bacon, Denny Loveridge and Alison Whelan<\/span>.<\/p>\n

David claims to be a successful businessman.\u00a0 I have supplied some details here<\/a><\/strong><\/span> from Companies House so that you can judge for yourself.\u00a0 David claims to live in Datchet, but I have my doubts.<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0 If you bump into him, maybe you could ask him where he lives?\u00a0 And of course David broke into Datchet Hall after dark<\/a><\/strong><\/span> on Monday 12th October 2026 when one would have expected him to be chairing the Datchet Parish Council Meeting.<\/p>\n
