Are they serious?
OPINION: The Greens aren’t serious people when it comes to the economy, so let’s not spend too much on their fiscal fantasies.
On social media Shaw has been praised for bringing legitimacy to the Greens, otherwise seen by many as a radical left wing set up.
There are calls for Shaw to set up a new party.
On X (formerly Twitter) contributor hopes that Shaw sets up a “real” environment party that can work on both sides of the house.
“I am sure many would back that. The radical left masquerading as a green party needs to be a thing of the past.”
“James Shaw could go and set up an actual Green Party in time for the next election. I think a lot of legitimate Green issues need to be addressed and the current party is clearly not capable, or focused at all, on doing that,” wrote another.
