The Green Party leader is standing in the Holborn and St Pancras by-election, hoping to win the seat from Labour.
Zack Polanski, the Green Party leader, is standing in the Holborn and St Pancras by-election in an attempt to capture the seat from Labour. He used the party's conference to urge supporters to vote for the Greens to pressure Labour on policy.
The by-election campaign comes amid internal party tensions. A Gaza debate has overshadowed the Green conference, and the party is facing questions over its direction and Polanski's position as its leader. Some party members have suggested that the Greens' popularity has declined following Andy Burnham's appointment as Prime Minister in place of Sir Keir Starmer.
