Surely the Greens won't have a "leadership battle". Won't they all just sit cross-legged in a circle, sing a peaceful chorus of Kumbaya, then agree in a cheerful consensual manner who will be leader? Or joint leaders? Or something?

Caroline Lucas is probably the only Green that some people could name or identify. That puts her well ahead of her contemporaries.
