It has been reported that one disagreement was between Hanson-Young and Waters over the choice of Shoebridge over Faruqi. Hanson-Young seems to have expected Waters to support another woman candidate in herself or Faruqi and was shocked that Waters instead chose to support Shoebridge and organised others to vote for him too. I have to admit, I was also quite surprised that The Greens chose one of the few men in their party room when they have plenty of senior women who would be a point of difference to the major parties.
Faruqi woukd have beena bad choixe and the second worst. Choice would have been S H-Y imo. I was a big fan of Larissa the Senator bit I think she made for a poor Leader. Hell, she was even on Mastodon fir a bit
We’ll see what Shoebridge does? I find his Ukriane stance appaling but other then that…
im more an old school Green though, planet, plave and people, in thar order, with no liviable biosphere we’re fucked and many of the polices relating to the enviorment and climate change make good economic sense and make for a much lower cost of living as well,

I can only imagine the shit flinging from the media/right wing if Faruqi won.
