Greens’ Dorinda Cox Quits Party, Australian PM Anthony Albanis joins Labor Party

West Australia Senator Dorinda Cox has left the Greens Party and has joined the labor party of Prime Minister Anthony Albanis.Cox’s move is a major setback for Greens, which has already lost three of its four lower seats, including former leader Adam Band. While Greens had maintained its strength in the Senate, the departure of Cox weakens their number.Cox told his decision to join New Greens leader Larisa Waters at the Labor Party that PM Albanis had held a afternoon press conference with him in Perth.“I have come to a conclusion after a deep and careful reflection that my values ​​and preferences are more alignment with labor than the greens,” said Cox.He said, “I have worked hard to make Australia fair and have established a lot of harmony. But recently, I have lost some confidence in the capacity for greens to help me be able to progress”, he said.Coxs still have three years left during their Senate tenure. However, she was facing pressure inside the party, when reports revealed that her office lost 20 employees in three years, with several complaints about the workplace. Cox denied any wrongdoing, but apologized for any crisis.Albanis said that complaints were observed and handled properly. “We reviewed all previous concerns and followed appropriate procedures,” he said.“All of them were dealt with and properly dealt with,” he said.Albanis said that Cox decided without any better purpose. She joined for the same reason she had done years ago – to create a real difference by becoming a part of a party in the government.“You want to make a difference. The way you make a difference, he is a member of a party of the government. The values ​​that Dorinda has perfectly corresponds to the values ​​of the labor party ”, Albanis said.However, the party switch by Cox does not give the labor control of the Senate. Labor now has 29 senators and Greens has 10, which means that the government still requires the support of greens to pass the law if the horoscope does not return them.Greens leaders Waters said she was disappointed with Cax’s decision. He believed that cox could have a major impact by living with Greens. Waters recently questioned the Labor Party’s approval of a gas project and questioned its values.He said, “Senator Cox has stated that their value align with the labor party. This is the same labor party that has approved the climate-Malebe North West Shelf Gas Project this week, which UNESCO advises that the important nation will destroy the heritage and ancient rock art”, he said.A former police officer, Cox, was seen as one of the most medium voices within the greens. She was a member of a labor party before joining the greens and was closely associated with several labor leaders.He is now the second indigenous senator to leave greens in recent years. Before that, Senator Lidia Thorpe also left and is now an independent politician.
