Roderic O’Gorman elected Ireland’s Green Party leader

The Green Party confirmed Mr O’Gorman’s appointment at a media event in Dublin on Monday morning with outgoing leader Eamon Ryan saying the event was about “passing the torch to a new leader”.

Out of an available party electorate of 3,425, a total of 1,896 members voted in the leadership contest.

Mr O’Gorman received 984 votes, while Minister of State and Senator Pippa Hackett received 912.

He will replace Mr Ryan immediately, and, on Monday evening, will attend the weekly pre-cabinet meeting of coalition leaders alongside Taoiseach Simon Harris and Tánaiste (deputy prime minister) Micheál Martin.
