工党守住霍尔本与圣潘克拉斯补选席位 绿党得票居次
据路透社10月9日报道，工党在10月8日举行的霍尔本与圣潘克拉斯议会补选中守住席位：工党候选人萨加尔·阿卜迪-瓦利（Sagal Abdi-Wali）获得12,292票，绿党领袖扎克·波兰斯基（Zack Polanski）获得8,928票，位居第二。结果于10月9日（周五）正式宣布。
这一席位此前由前工党领袖斯塔默持有，其辞职触发了本次补选。补选期间，绿党凭借5月地方选举的强劲势头积极挑战，加沙战争议题令工党在左翼选民中承压，使这场伦敦核心选区的争夺备受全国关注。
分析指出，绿党虽未获胜，但近9,000票的得票显示其在伦敦进步派选民中的号召力持续上升；工党则成功避免了在其传统票仓丢失席位的打击。
对7月就任首相的伯纳姆来说，这一结果是一次及时的提振。他领导的工党政府近期面临财政与多项政策争议，守住补选席位有助于稳定党内与市场情绪。

Labour Holds Holborn and St Pancras in By-Election as Greens Finish Second
Labour held the seat in the Holborn and St Pancras parliamentary by-election on 8 October, Reuters reported on 9 October: Labour candidate Sagal Abdi-Wali won 12,292 votes, with Green Party leader Zack Polanski second on 8,928 votes. The result was formally declared on Friday 9 October.
The seat had been held by former Labour leader Keir Starmer, whose resignation triggered the by-election. The Greens mounted a serious challenge on the back of their record local election results in May, and Labour faced pressure from left-leaning voters over the war in Gaza, making the contest in this central London constituency a focus of national attention.
Analysts noted that while the Greens fell short, a vote of nearly 9,000 underlines their growing appeal among progressive voters in London, while Labour avoided the blow of losing a seat in one of its traditional strongholds.
For Andy Burnham, prime minister since July, the result is a timely boost. His government has faced fiscal and policy controversies in recent weeks, and holding the seat helps steady nerves within the party and the markets.
