Kennedy Graham’s request to be a Green candidate declined
Green Party declines Kennedy Graham’s request to be a Green candidate in the 2017 election
Yesterday the Green Party’s Executive met to consider Green MP Kennedy Graham’s request to be considered for re-entry into the Party’s candidate list for the 2017 general election.
After careful consideration of the facts and Kennedy’s submission the Executive concluded that he had breached the Party’s Candidate Code of Conduct in a serious manner, and therefore decided to exclude Mr Graham from the Party’s pool.
Green Party Co-convenor Debs Martin has contacted Mr Graham to inform him of the decision this morning.
“We thank Kennedy for his many years of service, and the Executive finds it regrettable that events have led to this outcome.”
