For the last two months, The Greens have been a party in disarray. They've lost not one but two deputy leaders over dual citizenship laws. Opinion polls indicate their popularity is falling, particularly with their key demographic - younger voters, and a bruising internal fight over policy negotiations has ripped open the seams of the party. As the turmoil has unfolded, Four Corners has been there to capture the drama behind the scenes. We reveal the tensions within, as the party, born out of radical activism, tries to operate on the federal political stage. Key players in the party and its support base unload, venting their fury over the way politics is being played on the inside. As the party faces its biggest challenges since its foundation, Four Corners investigates if the party's actions live up to their spin.
Four Corners is Australia's premier television current affairs program. It has been part of the Australian story since August 1961, exposing scandals, triggering inquiries, firing debate, confronting taboos and interpreting fads, trends and sub-cultures. Its consistently high standards of journalism and film-making have earned international recognition and an array of Walkleys, Logies and other national awards.
