Description:

The future of Green Party co-leader James Shaw is on the line.  

Party delegates have voted to reopen nominations for his position, opening the door for a potential challenge that could oust the Climate Change Minister from his leadership role. 

Even if such a move fails, this unfolding crisis exposes some of the tensions within the Green Party, just over a year out from the next General Election.  

What’s behind this move to try and oust Shaw, and what does it mean for the Greens and their coalition partner, Labour? 

Today, NZ Herald senior political correspondent and host of On the Tiles, Thomas Coughlan, joins Damien to unpack an unprecedented Green coup.
