Generally, if someone's a member of one of the Green parties he'll be
called "Green" rather than anything else; I think it's generally
considered that the policies advocated by such parties are so far away
from anyone else's (particularly before the last few years, when they
toned it down a bit in order to start actually getting elected) that
it's a more important marker.
