For the record, my view on the greens: I don't think any of the parties share my ideals in sustainable development, including the Green party. I wouldn't waste my vote on them anyway. As it goes I voted against Labour. I actually don't think they've done much wrong, from a sust dev perspective they've actually done pretty well and I think their economic policies have and will protect the country from an economic disaster that could have happened. They also have pretty good (as in sensible keen and realistic) green policies which will stand us well in the future.

However, I do think it's time for a change. It's been a long time and green ideals are inevitable because of world problems and recession or not, all the parties recognise that there's an impending world crisis economically, environmentally and (as a result) socially and we can't sustain that globally.
