"The New South Wales Greens are on the verge of “an irrevocable split”, with two MPs threatening to quit the party unless it holds a recount of its preselection ballot and formally bans a section of the party’s hard-left faction.
In the latest escalation of the chaos engulfing the party in NSW, the upper house MPs Cate Faehrmann and Justin Field wrote to Greens members on Wednesday hinting they would leave the party unless it agreed to hold a recount of its upper house preselection ballot.
It follows another MP Dawn Walker’s request for a recount in the wake of the decision to ask Jeremy Buckingham to vacate his spot on the party’s ticket on Saturday.
Faehrmann and Field – both allied to Buckingham and part of the party’s so-called right faction – also demanded the party ban a subgroup of its hard-left faction, Left Renewal, and expel its members from the party by next Monday."
