Can the Green Party bounce back after a string of MP scandals?

The Front Page - Podcast tekijän mukaan NZ Herald

Last week, former Green Party co-leader James Shaw delivered his valedictory speech, marking the end of his decade in politics.  But, rather than a smooth transition to a new era, just a few hours later, Green MP Julie-Anne Genter sparked outcry across the aisle after she stood over and shouted at Mental Health Minister Matt Doocey during a Parlimentary debate.  It’s the fourth scandal to hit the Greens in under a year, prompting questions about the party's future as the Shaw era ends and a new one begins under his replacement co-leader, Chloe Swarbrick.  Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB political editor Jason Walls joins us from Parliament to discuss what the future holds for the Green Party.
