Green Party: Fourth councillor resigns over 'culture' within party

A fourth councillor has resigned from the Green Party.
Dublin-based Peter Kavanagh has stepped away from the Greens, citing internal abuse over his criticism of the party leadership.
Mr Kavanagh said the culture that has emerged in the party since entering Government is not one he can reconcile with his values.
In a series of tweets, he said: "I have never made my opposition to the Programme for Government a secret, having spoken against it at the Special Convention last year.
"Unfortunately, my voicing opposition to Government decisions within the party has been met with a culture I cannot reconcile with the values of the Green Party/Comhaontas Glas.
