You're not easily filed. You'd tax £10 million fortunes and extend free childcare to parents on benefits, yet you'd tighten PIP assessments and abandon net zero — a voter who wants a fairer floor under people without softening the state's edges elsewhere. Your firmest conviction is constitutional: you said no to regional devolution and no to banning extremist parties, preferring Westminster's messy status quo to either fragmentation or a crackdown. This is a Britain kept whole, not radically remade — welfare tightened at the edges, the union intact, the rulebook left largely alone.

You split almost exactly down the middle with the country — siding with the majority about half the time. You broke sharply from the grain on devolution (two-thirds of Britain wanted regional assemblies; you didn't) and on nuclear defence, where you voted no while three-quarters of the nation said yes — a rare moment of doubt from someone otherwise instinctively cautious about upheaval.

Nineteen votes cast, but whole fields untouched — immigration, justice, education, energy, foreign policy. For someone this exercised about constitutional architecture, the absence of any vote on immigration or elections is the profile's biggest silence.

This is early days — thirteen scored votes is a sketch, not a portrait, though the constitutional conviction already shows through clearly. Cast a few more, especially somewhere unclaimed like immigration or justice, and next week's read will sharpen from outline to likeness.
