The Redistributive Realist
You vote like someone who thinks the economy is rigged toward the top and wants that corrected — capping payouts for wealthy flood victims, taxing AI job-cuts, limiting political donations — but you're not chasing a slogan, you're chasing fairness with a ledger attached. This is a Britain where power moves out of Westminster toward places like Manchester, where the environment isn't negotiable, and where the state still has the nerve to intervene in markets that have stopped working for ordinary people.
Here's the catch: on education you go hard right, and you called the Green Party a danger to society while also wanting stricter sentencing for non-British offenders — hardly the reflexes of a doctrinaire leftist. You're not performing ideology; you're weighing each question, which is rarer than it sounds and occasionally lands you standing next to Reform voters by accident.
You side with the national majority most of the time, but where you break, it's telling — you'd scrap Brexit while the country still narrowly wouldn't, and you're cooler on reindustrialisation than most.
Grimsby and Cleethorpes mostly moves with you — unanimous on donation caps, unanimous against Burnham's plan, unanimous that Reform isn't a danger — but your town split hard against the local care-housing scheme, a rare local disagreement worth noting.
You've never voted on immigration, energy or transport — glaring gaps for someone this engaged with fairness and infrastructure elsewhere.
This is early days at 30 scored votes — cast a few more, especially on immigration and energy, and the picture sharpens fast. We'll be watching every vote you make from here.
