But both constituencies’ lawmakers resigned under a cloud.Tamworth legislator Chris Pincher quit after Parliament’s standards watchdog recommended he be suspended for “completely inappropriate” behavior after groping two men at a London private members’ club. Then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson’ s reluctance to sanction Pincher when the allegations emerged helped trigger Johnson's ouster at the hands of his own party last year.Mid-Bedfordshire member of Parliament Nadine Dorries resigned over the treatment of Johnson and her own failure to be appointed to Parliament’s upper chamber, the House of Lords. Dorries is a strong ally of Johnson who has blamed Prime Minister Rishi Sunak for helping to topple the former leader.The Conservatives acknowledge they face “difficult headwinds” in both seats. Polls close at 10 p.m. (2100GMT), with results announced early Friday.The main opposition Labour Party and the smaller Liberal Democrats hope to win the seats but have tried to manage expectations, noting that the Conservatives won substantial majorities in 2019. Labour has called both districts “super-safe Tory seats.”Losing either one would add to pressure on the governing party, which has lost several byelections since Sunak took office just under a year ago. He replaced Liz Truss, who quit in October 2022 after her plan for unfunded tax cuts sent financial markets into turmoil and rocked the economy.Truss spent just seven weeks in office after winning a party leadership contest to replace Johnson, who quit after three years in office when scandals over money and ethics turned party lawmakers against him.Sunak steadied the economy but has not managed to boost the party’s rating in opinion polls, where it consistently lags between 10 and 20 points behind Labour.The Conservatives have been in power nationally since 2010, years that saw austerity following the world banking crisis, Britain’s divisive decision to leave the European Union, a global pandemic and a European war that has triggered the worst cost-of-living crisis in decades.Polls show the Conservatives are losing support across the country, from affluent southern voters turned off by Brexit to working-class northern voters who switched from Labour in 2019 after Johnson promised to spread prosperity to long-neglected areas.Sunak has tried to rally support by arguing he has a long-term vision and is prepared to make tough decisions to change Britain.Earlier this month Labour won a special election victory over the Scottish National Party in Scotland. Winning seats in Scotland, where the pro-independence SNP has long been dominant, is key to Labour’s attempt to secure a majority in the next national election, due by the end of 2024.。今年一季度以来，来自北京的汽车品牌在新能源市场上频频亮相，极狐、小米、理想等品牌分别发布了涵盖轿车、SUV、MPV等不同车型，成为活跃在新能源中高端市场上的生力军。　　发布会开始前，预售现场的几辆阿尔法S5展车吸引了众多嘉宾的目光，大伙儿纷纷坐进展车内零距离体验这一新车型。“空间挺宽敞的！”“内饰挺有质感！”“车身流线型，好看！”点赞声不绝于耳，嘉宾们对于这款新车的期待感也被逐步点燃。　　在当下竞争白热化的新能源市场上，阿尔法S5零至百公里加速度最快达到3.7秒，最高CLTC（中国汽车行驶工况）续航里程为708公里，最快充电时效可实现充电10分钟续航超过280公里，一系列核心数据在纯电轿车市场颇具竞争力。　　除了一系列“硬核”配置，这款车型的设计也颇为用心，在降低风阻、保障动力的同时，尽可能提升了车内空间。“坐在车里，我们头部距车顶空间有两至三拳，车宽超过1.9米，后排三人乘坐很宽敞舒适。”北京新能源总经理代康伟说。
