It's certainly hypocritical, but I wouldn't say it's morally unjustifiable. She has no responsibility to the party anymore and can do what she wants.

Every party has it's mavericks, so who knows if she actually was anti-gambling.

Why does the Austrian Greens have a strong stance against gambling, and also why (just curious) are you getting news about Austria from Malaysia?

A) because virtually all leftist parties are strongly against gambling.

B) because there were hardly any other English articles about her.

Is that an Austrian thing or an entire European thing?

It's the opposite here, at least in the South.

This is one of those ways where Democrats are liberal rather than leftist.

As a green myself with no hate boner for gambling, I don't see why it wouldn't be morally justifiable
