I’m not sure Andrew Hall understands how politics works if he is blaming the Greens for cannabis not being decriminalised yet. That’s actually up to the government in power, which is Labor, not Greens (so far!).
The Greens are doing everything they can to push federal parliament to decriminalise cannabis, but they can only do so much when both major parties continue to oppose it.
If you’re upset by their resistance on this (or their support for skyrocketing rents, new coal and gas approvals, or tax cuts for the rich), make sure you vote Greens next time!
