If the Green Party in the UK is like that in Ireland they'll do nothing. The Greens in Ireland claimed to support equality but abandoned that as soon as they entered into power as the junior partner in Ireland's coalition government.

Unfortunately politicians of all persuasions now only look at the term of office and where their thinking is reactive and not pro-active for the future. In this respect as global problems grow as they will, there is an ever increasing demand for politicians to not just address national problems but more so, global problems, for these will be far more profound than anything else. Indeed, as the world population of between 9.7 billion and 12.4 billion humans by 2050 hits head on with the world's ever dwindling natural resources, world wars will be the outcome if we do not place global problems at the pinnacle of all political thinking. In this respect if we do not, humans will not exist after this present century. Therefore greed of the few has to be supplanted by the needs of the many before it is far too late.
