A likely record Green Party caucus is ramping up for an energetic term in Opposition, with the leaders indicating “community-led resistance” - particularly around climate change and Te Tiriti o Waitangi issues - could be on the cards, although both of their futures are still uncertain. James Shaw and Marama Davidson were joined by 13 other Green Party members in Wellington today. Speaking in front of Parliament, neither Shaw or Davidson were able to confirm if they would stick out the full term as co-leaders. “Still decisions to be made,” said Davidson, who entered Parliament in 2015 and became female co-leader in 2018. Labour’s Willie Jackson has spoken about working with the Greens and Te Pāti Māori to fight back.
