The Reluctant Greenskeptic
You want a Britain that protects people first — you'd raise child benefit, brake welfare cuts, call utilities privatisation a failure — but you're deeply wary of a state that spends big on decarbonisation while the everyday economics of self-employment gets harder. Your vision is a protective, redistributive Britain that still burns diesel and builds where it's cheap.
You split almost exactly down the middle with the national result — siding with the majority barely half the time — which isn't indecision so much as a genuinely idiosyncratic mix: you're with the country on utilities and child benefit, against it on planning reform, electrification, and woodland targets, where you voted no while most of Britain said yes.
Grimsby and Cleethorpes mostly moves with you — you rejected shifting power from London to the regions and so did your area unanimously, and you both took a dim view of Burnham's "good growth" plan. Your sharpest local break: you voted for faster electrification while your own patch voted 78% against it.
You've never voted on health, justice, transport or rights — sizeable holes in a profile that's otherwise opinionated on almost everything economic. For someone this engaged with welfare and housing, staying silent on health is the gap most worth closing.
This is early days for a fuller picture — 37 scored votes is enough to see the shape, not the whole animal. Vote on health or justice next and watch this profile sharpen; it rewrites itself every week you show up.
