In the 2017 general election, Green candidates stood in 457 seats across the UK, standing down in some seats to improve the chances of another progressive candidate.

By-elections

The party came second in the 2008 Haltemprice and Howden by-election, although unusually Labour and the Liberal Democrats did not stand candidates.

The Richmond Green Party voted against standing in the 2016 Richmond Park by-election and to back the Liberal Democrat candidate.[7] On 3 November, the Kingston Green Party did the same, and confirmed that there would not be a Green Party candidate in the by-election.[8]

The Party stated that following the murder of the incumbent MP Jo Cox that it would not contest the 2016 Batley and Spen by-election.[9] Similarly, following the murder of the incumbent MP David Amess, the Green Party stated that it would not contest the 2022 Southend West by-election.[10]

European Parliament election 2014

In the 2014 election, the Greens gained a seat for the first time since 1999, with Molly Scott Cato being elected as MEP for South West England, where the party's vote share rose by 1.8%. However, the party's vote fell in every other region, and there was media speculation that the party had only gained a seat in the South West as a result of An Independence from Europe dividing the UK Independence Party vote.[15]

2016

In September 2015, Amelia Womack, then Deputy Leader of GPEW, announced her intention to stand in the National Assembly elections for the Wales Green Party.[20] The Wales Green Party create their own set of devolved policies around devolved issues in Wales. They were hopeful of gaining three Assembly seats from the proportional representation lists in the 2016 elections.[21] In the event, they won none, their vote share fell by 0.4%, and the party dropped to seventh place, behind the single-issue Abolish the Welsh Assembly Party. It was the party's worst result since 1999.

2011

The Wales Green Party again fielded candidates in all 5 top-up regions for the 2011 election. For the first time since 1999, the Greens also stood in a constituency - they once again opted to stand in Ceredigion.

During the 2011 campaign, they specifically targeted Labour voters with the aim of persuading them to use their regional list vote for the Greens, using the slogan "2nd vote Green". They claimed that Labour list votes were "wasted" and that over 70,000 votes in South Wales Central went "in the bin at every election" as Labour had never won a top-up seat in that region.[22]

On this occasion, South Wales Central was the region the party targeted. The region includes Cardiff, with its large student population, and also the constituency of Cardiff Central, the only Liberal Democrat-Labour marginal seat in Wales. Welsh Green leader and South Wales Central candidate Jake Griffiths stated they were also aiming to attract disaffected Liberal Democrat voters in the region.[23]

The Greens polled 32,649 votes, 3.4% of the total votes cast for the regional lists.[24] In South Wales Central, they took over 10,000 votes, 5.2% of the total, though they were still almost 6,000 votes away from winning a seat. The regional results were as follows:

In Ceredigion, Chris Simpson polled 1,514 votes, or 5.2%. He came fifth out of five candidates.[30]

2007

In 2007, the party again fielded a list of candidates in each of the top-up regions but no candidates for the constituencies. The Wales Green Party proposed that Wales should "be at the forefront of....a green industrial revolution". The party targeted South Wales West - the region where they had performed best in 2003.[31]

The Welsh Greens polled 33,803 votes, or 3.5% of the total, a slight decrease on 2003.[32] The party failed to win any seats, with their best performance this time being Mid and West Wales with 4.0% of the vote. In South Wales West their vote declined by one percentage point, their worst result of the five regions.

1999

In the 1999 inaugural election for the National Assembly, the Welsh Greens stood candidates in all five electoral regions used to elect "top-up" members of the assembly. Additionally, one candidate stood for the constituency seat of Ceredigion. The party stated that they aimed to poll around 7% of the vote and win at least one top-up seat.[43]

The Welsh Greens ultimately polled 25,858 votes in the regional lists, 2.5% of the total, and 1,002 constituency votes (3.1%) in Ceredigion. No Welsh Greens were elected.[44]
