The Green Party’s leader has announced plans to contest the Holborn and St Pancras parliamentary seat after Sir Keir Starmer stepped down as its MP. The move signals the party’s ambition to capture a key London constituency traditionally held by the Labour Party, while Starmer’s resignation has left the seat open for a fresh contest. The decision comes amid growing pressure on the Greens to increase their presence in Westminster, and the leader’s candidacy could energise voters looking for an alternative to the major parties. The upcoming election will test whether the Greens can translate their growing support into a seat in one of the city’s most high‑profile districts.
The Green Party leader intends to run in the Holborn and St Pancras seat following Sir Keir Starmer's resignation as MP.
