The Greens are in crisis mode after one of their senators was accused of inappropriate conduct towards women. 

On Monday the party held an emergency meeting after an explosive statement from Jordon Steele-John, denying the allegations and accusing the new party leader of lying.

An internal Greens investigation is underway. 

But what could be more politically damaging than the claims against Steele-John is the Greens alleged coverup of misconduct claims against him.

Today, journalist Rachel Withers discusses the investigation, the secret dossier to contain the crisis, and what the events of the last week tell us about the Greens.
