The Malgravean Green Party is the oldest political party still active in the country. It currently holds the second largest number of seats in the Chamber of Representatives and the Chamber of Supervisors.

History

The Malgravean Green Party was one of the first political parties founded after the establishment of the Malgravean state following the conclusion of the Conference of Asola in 1910. It was formed following concerns in the scientific community over the long-term environmental and societal impact of heavy industry and rampant urbanisation alongside a wholesale rejection of colonialism and imperialism, and early campaign material from the party routinely linked these messages together.

In the 1910s and 1920s the Green Party enjoyed success in both national elections, a factor attributed to the success of anti-slavery campaigns initiated by the Green Party in government and their populist approach to wider politics, this trend continued into the early 1930s with the Greens holding government, however, their perceived failure to react quickly enough to the events surrounding the Great Exodus led to the parties fall from grace and the collapse of the government in 1933.

For several decades the Green Party failed to coming close to holding a position of power, however, in the middle of the Lost Decade the Green Party started to regain some of its pre-exodus popularity, a trend which continued following the end of isolationism in 2000 and the end of counter-terrorism operations in 2012. In 2019 the Green Party cemented its place as the largest opposition in the country and opening up the possibility of a return to power in the future.

Political Platform

Economically the Green Party support what they call a steady state economy which in Malgrave is the belief that a countries economic growth has a ceiling tied to the environmental concerns and finite natural resources of said country, it is against what it sees as the mass consumption and over capitalist lifestyle of the Malgravean people and wishes to implement and economy and social structure based on sustainability and long-term use. The Party also supports localisation with the support of subsidies for various small industries like agriculture and environmental friendly industry whilst also supporting import tariffs, the Green Party also supports what is calls the democratization of the local banking sector with the formation of dozens of local publicly owned community banks providing local enterprises and people with much needed funds and investment.

One of the most controversial issues for the party is the supporting of a so called citizens income an unconditional, non-means-tested, weekly payment made to every citizen whether they are working or not, the Green Party report that this citizens income will completely eliminate the poverty trap and help achieve prosperity even in a zero-growth economy. To pay for these measures the Green Party support an increase to the top bracket of income tax, corporation tax and the formation of several new eco-taxes on packaging, carbon emissions

Socially the Green Party is mixed especially on the scientific front with some politicians in the party wishing to put some limits on the kind of research permitted on humans and an extreme minority wishing to even slowly put an end to research on animals, with research being reported on alternative methods to animal testing. Tacking such scientific methods however is an extremely unpopular position in the country which is not supported by a majority of politicians from within the party who support current methods as they do not wish to be seen as anti-science. It also wishes to see the eventual legalisation of all drugs in the country into a well regulated model alongside more scientific research into the causes and cures for addiction. In other social cases it supports the current Progressive-Unity Party in the equality of all species, sexualities and religions to marry and adopt.
