Former Green MP 'unsurprised' James Shaw stepped down from co-leader role

A former Green MP says it's no surprise James Shaw has stepped aside as co-leader.

He's announced he'll stand down in March, but remain an MP to back his Sustainable Environment Bill's first reading.

Gareth Hughes says Shaw got the Party into Government for six years, so he can say mission accomplished.

"It makes sense, I think, for him- and also for the Party to refresh itself and look to the future."
