Holborn and St Pancras by-election gets under way
Voters in north London are going to the polls to choose a new MP after Sir Keir Starmer resigned.
What the coverage shows
All three outlets frame the item as the Holborn and St Pancras by-election getting under way and focus on voters choosing a replacement for Keir Starmer. BBC News and The Guardian US both stress the polling process itself, while Al Jazeera alone adds a line about the vote testing whether Burnham can restore faith in Labour. The Guardian US also presents it as live coverage with an “as it happened” format, which neither of the others does.
