In an interview with TheJournal.ie, Gogarty was reported to have claimed that he was considering changing parties to Fianna Fáil saying that "I haven’t finished with the Greens. I am very much green to the core, but in terms of getting political objectives achieved, I have not made up my mind with whether I will go back into politics, whether the Green Party has a chance to recover or whether we need a strong green element in some other organisation".
