You want a Britain that's liberal at home and hard-edged at its borders — kind on marriage equality and transgender rights, unsentimental on immigration, crime and defence. It's not confusion; it's a clear line between how people should be free to live and how the state should be kept strong.

You're split down the middle with the country — agreeing on the big security calls (nuclear capability, deportation, even the wealth question) but breaking from the national mood on the National Care Service, where most of Britain backed tax-funded care and you didn't. That one dissent is the sharpest thing here: you'll fund the deterrent before you'll fund the care service.

Your circle leans centre-left and you keep step with them most of the time, but not slavishly — 62% agreement is companionship, not conformity. Gavtheoldgit is your near-constant ally; MikeHowes is the one you keep talking past, likely on exactly the welfare-and-borders questions where your liberalism runs out.

Ten votes is just the opening sketch — enough to see the shape of a liberal-hawk, not yet enough to call it fixed. Keep voting and the picture sharpens fast: every ballot you finish tonight rewrites tomorrow's read.
