Labour has retained the Holborn and St Pancras parliamentary seat, with Camden council leader Sagal Abdi-Wali winning the by-election against Green Party leader Zack Polanski. Despite the victory, Labour's majority in the north London constituency was significantly reduced.
The by-election was necessitated by the resignation of the previous Member of Parliament, who had held the seat. The contest was viewed as a significant test for Labour's ability to appeal to voters who have recently shifted their support to the Green Party.
