She really had no other choice. The Greens were on the verge of imploding.
Yep, whether or not she was right to do what she did, she really should have resigned at the point she said she would not take up a cabinet minister roll. The last week has really hurt the party, and made it impossible to talk about any of the policies the Greens stand for. Twitter can blame the media for this all they like, but the reality of the situation was clear then, and the newshub poll result shows that.
If the Greens finish below Winston First, they really do cede a lot of power in any negotiations, so I think it was quite selfish of her to hold on. I don't know much about Clendon, but I was really disappointed in the attacks on Kennedy Graham. I have a lot of respect for him and the stuff I saw attacking him for being a stuffy white male was really dissapointing.
