In the face of this level of shameless corruption and process manipulation by the current Victorian Greens State Council it is good to hear the rank and file members resisting and speaking up.
Solidarity with Victorian Greens members resisting the extreme control on debate being pushed by the State Council and MPs. Without debate, a political party cannot possibly succeed in its mission, including in addressing environmental and economic crises.
"An internal war within the Victorian Greens over allegations of transphobia has taken an unexpected turn, with the leadership facing pushback from ordinary members who believe bullying by trans activists is a bigger problem within the party than bigotry." https://t.co/TBbxJPLDui
