imnofox announces results of co-leadership election

"Tena koutou, tena koutou, tena tatou katoa. Today I can announce the results of the co-leadership election, following AnswerMeNow's explosive resignation from the party and the government. The election was for two roles- both co-leadership positions, following my internal statement on Tuesday marking my intention to resign."

"I have served as party leader since early October last year, becoming both the longest serving party leader, and the longest continuously serving party leader. Through that time I have steered the party, alongside my colleagues, into government more often than not, and successfully presented a stable government in waiting, holding previous governments to account, and growing our support."

"While I have been considering my resignation for multiple months now, as my former colleague in Te Tawharau can attest to, it is my love and passion for the party and it's policies that have kept me in this position, doing the hard mahi, to deliver a greener future for Aotearoa New Zealand. Under my leadership, we have delivered real climate solutions and continue to fight for conservation, we have brought about the necessary reforms our welfare system needs, and we have ushered in a strong Green imprint on every other portfolio we've touched. I'm especially proud of the work this term in the mental health space, which I must commend the Health Minister /u/bhjr132 for championing so beautifully."

"I feel that I have done what I can for the Green Party, and that it is time for other talent to take the reigns, especially after the recent explosion caused by the former leader. I will not deny this played a significant part in my decision to finally resign as co-leader. I will not be resigning as an MP, nor as a Minister, because there is still much work to be done for New Zealand. Further, cabinet has collectively decided that for the remainder of the term, in the short time we have left, I will remain as Prime Minister to continue the strong work and stability that this government is known for, and I acknowledge their position and will continue to serve in this role with the consensus and collective support of cabinet, to the best of my ability, to deliver the best possible results, as I have done thus far."

"I can announce that the new co-leaders of the Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand are /u/ARichTeaBiscuit and old mate /u/UncookedMeatloaf, someone who we all know to have great experience with this role."

"The detailed results can be found in the document distributed to you earlier."
