Senator Larissa Waters has been announced as the new leader of the Greens, because she does not waste time to fire a warning for work.
Adam Bandt, who had led the minor party since 2020, lost his seat of Melbourne Have ended in the federal elections 15-year career in the federal parliament.
His colleagues met on Thursday in the Victorian capital to decide on a new leader.
Queensland Senator Larissa Waters triumphed about South Australian Sarah Hanson-Young and Mehreen Faruqi van NSW.
Senator Waters, who has been in parliament since 2011, was considered a cautious thing to set up for her hand for leadership, but was seen by colleagues as a ‘consensus candidate’.
“I connect that as a former environmental lawyer, as a proud feminist, that I will always work for equality and that I will always work for nature and for the community and to help people,” Senator Waters said reporters shortly after her announcement as a leader.
She added: ‘Now the Labor Party has a choice. They can work with us. They can work with us and help people and protect nature.
‘Or they can choose to work with the coalition. They have to choose because they do not have the figures in the Senate to adopt the legislation on which they want to work. ‘

The Greens are left with the Queensland seat of Ryan and 11 senators after the elections.
Despite the loss of three of their four lower members, they remain faith in the influence of influence in the Senate, where the party has the power relationships.
Senator Waters is the second longest serving member of the Greens Party Room behind Senator Hanson-Young.
The mother-of-two wrote history in 2017 when she became the first women to breastfeed her baby daughter in the Senate Chamber.
A few months later she was forced to resign from parliament during the eligible crisis after it was discovered that she had double Canadian-Australian citizenship.
She was born from Australian parents in Canada and returned with them as a baby.

She is now confronted with the task of picking up the pieces after the greens have lost three seats in the Lagershuis and failed to pick up extras in the elections.
Senator Faruqi was chosen as deputy leader – a role she held under Adam Bandt – while Hanson -Young was appointed manager of the business community.
The defeat of Bandt was a special humiliation, in which the deposited leader blamed everyone except himself when he reported his loss to the redistribution of his Melbourne seat, a voter’sback against Peter Dutton and preferences of one nation and liberal voters.
Labor has at least 28 seats in the Senate and with the support of De Groenen has the figures to get legislation through the Senate.
There are many different reasons for the disappointing election result of the Greens.
Their opposition against the reforms of Labor gave them the anger of the Anthony Albanese who criticized them in the aftermath of their seesawout.
“It is quite difficult to see that they have a reason for some joy that results from this election,” the Prime Minister told Sky News last week.
“The Greens Political Party, I think, lost the road during the last term.
“They stopped important legislation. How do you stop legislation to have more social housing, to have emergency accommodation for women and children who escape domestic violence? ‘
They were also criticized because they are aligning with the CFMEU, in particular Griffith Member Max Chandler-Math, who appeared in one of the rallies of the Union after this last July had been decorated by the government.
Drew Hutton, founder of the Greens van Queensland, repeated these concerns and claimed that the green choice of bedgots often failed.
“I think Max (Chandler-Mather) Fronting that CFMEU-Rally was a bit of a problem,” Mr Hutton told the ABC.
“The CFMEU is not the type of union of wanting to be associated.”
They were also confronted with accusations of anti -Semitism.
Julian Lezener, a Jewish liberal parliamentary member for Berowra in North Sydney, shared a statement on Facebook last week where he accused the greens of anti -Semitism.
“The loss of the seats of the greens in the house of representatives is a rejection of the anti -Semitism of the Greens and a justification of Peter Dutton’s decision to place them last,” he said.
