The Border-State Social Democrat
You want a firmer, more self-protective UK: controlled immigration, disciplined welfare, serious defence and institutions that enforce their own rules. Yet this is not a laissez-faire creed; you still want the state to build, invest and make unearned income carry more of the load — as you put it, tax capital gains before raising National Insurance.
You have moved from The Carbon-Conscious Hardliner to a more fully drawn Border-State Social Democrat: still recognisably hard right on immigration and defence, but sharper on rights and less persuaded by green investment, opposing more renewable spending over gas. The old economic counterweight remains, though your recent votes show a slightly tougher instinct on energy and a small softening on justice.
You usually travel with the national majority, but your instincts are more uncompromising on borders, identity and constitutional authority. The tension is revealing: you backed banning first-cousin marriage, replacing the Refugee Convention and ending indefinite leave to remain, yet resisted inheritance-tax abolition and have voted left on economy and elections.
You run somewhat to the right of a Centre-Right circle, agreeing with it often but not mechanically. KarenWe46247708 is your natural ally on parties and defence, though environment divides you; ChrisClarke is the real fault line — common ground on elections and economy, but a deep split on immigration and rights.
Your live question is whether left economics becomes a deliberate nation-building programme or remains the exception inside a border-first worldview. Ten more votes will unlock a fresh read, and each ballot will sharpen the picture further — especially where security, spending and the environment collide.

The Carbon-Conscious Hardliner
You are a right-wing nation-builder: lower immigration, firmer justice and a more confident defence posture, but not a small-state conservative. Your economics remain distinctly left of your politics elsewhere — suspicious of unearned income, sympathetic to industrial investment and open to a cleaner, more interventionist state. You want a UK that is tougher at its borders, greener in its energy choices and less deferential to wealth.
A while back, you were The Hard-Border Keynesian; you have not abandoned the Keynesian half, but you have sharpened into a more rights-conscious, defence-first hardliner. Immigration has hardened further, foreign policy has moved from Centre Right to Right, while your lone leftward movement in justice shows the authoritarian turn is not complete.
You usually travel with the national majority — 49 of 60 recent votes — but your instincts are often more forceful than the public mood. You backed random citizens in the Lords against the country’s preference, yet joined the consensus on labelling halal food, resisting restored foreign aid and sending more drones to Ukraine.
You run with a Centre-Right crowd, agreeing with them more often than not, but you are not simply following it. KarenWe46247708 is your closest ally on parties and defence, though you part ways on the environment; ChrisClarke is your sharpest clash, especially over immigration and rights, despite shared ground on economy and housing.
Your open question is whether state-building can keep pace with your tightening cultural politics; ten more votes will sharpen that answer, and the whole picture grows truer each time you vote.

The Hard-Border Keynesian
You are a clearly right-wing voter with a hard edge on immigration, defence, welfare and cultural confidence, yet your economics keep pulling left: reindustrialisation, infrastructure and public services matter more to you than a simple low-tax creed. You want a self-protecting UK that controls its borders, defends its interests and makes the state work — “work on the demand side” before endlessly expanding supply.
A while back you were The Fortress Keynesian; you are still economically interventionist, but the fortress has grown higher. Immigration has hardened into the clearest line in your politics, while welfare and rights have moved further right without dislodging your instinct that government should invest and shape the economy.
You usually travel with the national majority — on 50 of your 60 recent votes with usable comparisons — but your agreement is not soft-minded: you backed a migration cap, cultural limits on tolerance and a smaller benefits settlement. The tension is that you reject the left-right spectrum while voting decisively right on the questions that now define it.
You run somewhat ahead of your Centre-Right circle rather than simply following it. KarenWe46247708 is your closest ally, especially on parties and defence, but you split over the environment; ChrisClarke is the revealing clash — shared ground on economy and housing, real distance on immigration and rights.
Your next ten votes will test whether the border hardliner or the state-building Keynesian gets the final word. The picture sharpens every time you vote, and the next read will make that unresolved combination truer still.

The Fortress Keynesian
You want a tougher, more self-protective UK: firm borders, serious defence, stricter justice and less deference to fashionable orthodoxies. Yet your economics pull left—towards free university, wealth taxes, rent controls and public provision—while you still resist higher charges and welfare expansion; as you put it, tax “unearned income” before touching payslips.
You were The Deterrent Populist; now you are a more fully formed Fortress Keynesian, holding the security line while making the economic dissent harder to dismiss. The new votes sharpened both instincts: you backed a partly private NHS and offender restrictions, but rejected a care levy, resisted harder traditional schooling and opposed making prisoners pay.
You usually travel with the national majority, but your convictions are more concentrated than the country’s: immigration, defence and environmental questions bring out an almost instinctive firmness. Your sharpest break is economic—wanting stronger public or redistributive action while opposing trade-union power and anything that looks like an open-ended bill.
You run with a Centre-Right crowd, but not in lockstep. KarenWe46247708 is your natural ally on parties and defence; ChrisClarke is the revealing clash—shared ground on economy and housing, but a genuine divide on rights and immigration.
Your next ten votes should test whether your economic left turn is a settled doctrine or a collection of exceptions to a fundamentally hard-right worldview; the picture will sharpen each time you vote.

The Deterrent Populist
You want a Britain that shuts the door on non-citizen welfare claims, arms itself without apology, and stops apologising for its own history — but you'd nationalise British Steel and tax wealth before you'd touch wages. This is not confusion; it's a settled worldview: national hardness on the outside, redistribution at the top on the inside.
You were the Border-First Realist; the border instincts haven't softened one bit — immigration, defence and environment are now unanimous convictions, not just leanings. What's shifted is texture: you've drifted further onto the NHS and student-debt left (overhaul PIP, scrap tuition fees, back the Modernisation Bill) while still refusing whole-life sentences and cheering closer EU ties — the same tension, now wearing sharper edges.
You ran with the national majority on 50 of 60 recent calls — fracking, the licence fee, drilling, cutting DWP spend — but you break hard on two: you'd keep Britain closer to Brussels and you won't bring back whole-life sentences, both minority positions you hold with no apparent discomfort.
You track your circle two-thirds of the time, tightest with Karen on parties and defence, loosest with Chris — you share his economics but split hard on immigration and rights, the fault line running straight through your own alliance.
Your economic left streak is still unproven on business and employment votes — cast a few there and this profile will finally tell you whether it's principle or just instinct. Vote on, and next week's read gets sharper still.

The Border-First Realist
You want a Britain that's armed, controlled at the border, and unsentimental about welfare — but you'd fund it by taxing wealth, not wages ("charging NI on capital gains for starters"), a patriot with a socialist's grudge against unearned income.
You were "The Wealth-Tax Loyalist" — right on order, left on tax. That split hasn't closed; if anything it's hardened, with immigration and defence now unanimous convictions and environment joining the right column too. The open thread from last time — whether the economic-left lean was principled or just wealth-tax populism — is still open, but you're now clearly a border-and-forces man first.
You run with the country far more than against it — majority side on 34 of 42 recent votes — but you break loudly on justice (against whole-life sentences, against the grain of a nation that wants them) and on Europe, where you back closer EU ties while much of your own camp wouldn't.
You sit right of your Centre-Right circle's average, agreeing with jgazzaj three times in four. ChrisClarke is your real fault line — you meet on economics but split hard on rights and welfare, the same tension running through your own votes.
Vote a few more on housing and health and I'll tell you whether the wealth-tax strain is principle or exception — the picture sharpens every week, and this read grows with you.

The Wealth-Tax Loyalist
You want a Britain that locks its doors and toughens its spine — nuclear-armed, net-zero-sceptical, PIP assessments tightened, shoplifters and knife-carriers dealt with hard — but you want the bill for it sent to people with £10 million lying around. You're not a fiscal conservative playing tough guy; you're a welfare hawk who thinks the wealthy should actually pay for the state you're defending.
Last week you were "The Fiscal Hawk on Tax" — right on borders and backbone, left on the ledger. That hasn't just held, it's hardened: you've since voted for a wealth tax, pension-fund patriotism, and capped political donations, while doubling down on PIP tightening and nuclear defence. Same voter, sharper edges.
You sided with the national majority on 26 of 30 recent votes — you're no outlier by instinct, you're just choosing a different combination of mainstream positions than most: tough-on-crime Britain and tax-the-rich Britain rarely vote in the same body, but you do both.
Nothing yet on business, employment, science, or culture — categories that would show whether your economic left turn is a one-off (the wealth tax) or a genuine redistributive streak, versus your unbroken right lean on rights and justice.
Vote on a business or employment referendum next and we'll know whether "tax the rich, jail the thug" is your settled worldview or one plank of it — every vote sharpens this picture, and we'll have a fresh read waiting.

The Fiscal Hawk on Tax
You want a Britain that's firm at the edges — tighter on immigration, sceptical of Holyrood breaking away, no let-up on grooming-gang deportations — but one that still makes capital pay its share. You're not a small-state Tory; you're the voter who'd hike the bank surcharge and back HMRC's crackdown on the £17.3bn tax gap while holding the line everywhere else.
You split from the country almost as often as you joined it — no to mass housebuilding while the nation said yes, no to Scottish independence while the country edged toward curiosity, yet you matched the near-unanimous mood on lobbying transparency and the Rochdale deportation law. You're not a contrarian by temperament; you just don't move with headlines.
There's no local data yet to set against your votes — an absence, not a verdict. Once your area shows its hand, this is where the real friction (or comfort) will show up.
Ten votes and not one on health, education, energy, or justice — categories that usually reveal whether a "tough but fair" voter means it. Right now you're a fiscal hawk with an unwritten record everywhere else.
Early days — eight scored votes is a sketch, not a portrait, but the tension between your right-leaning instincts and your left-leaning economics is already the most interesting thing about you. Cast a few more, especially on health or welfare, and this profile will start telling you things you didn't know you believed.
