Delete -- Until 1992, the Green Party were a minor pressure group with six Principal Speakers. Since then there have been two. On previous AFDs, I have taken the two that the two Principal Speakers were notable, but the earlier six were not. However, we might merge a short summary (e.g. 1-2 sentences) into Principal Speaker#Incumbents prior to 1992 (six elected annually), for each of the six.
