LONDON, Sept 3 (Reuters) – The leader of Britain’s left-wing Green Party intends to stand in an election to parliament in the London seat vacated by former Labour prime minister Keir Starmer, a local newspaper reported on Thursday.
Zack Polanski told the Camden New Journal he would be the Green candidate for Holborn and St Pancras, a left-leaning constituency which Starmer held comfortably in 2024 though with a much-reduced vote share.
