You vote like someone who has watched Grimsby get the sharp end of every restructuring since Thatcher and wants the ledger settled — hence the unanimous left calls on economy and governance, the sympathy for Burnham's break from Thatcher-era orthodoxy, the backing for a legal max workplace temperature. But you're no soft touch on welfare: you said no to the wealth tax, no to a National Care Service, no to the care levy, no to extending free childcare. Your UK is one where power and capital get redistributed downward, but new entitlement schemes have to earn their place first.

You're a genuine swing voter, not a reliable dissenter — siding with the national majority on two of every three recent votes, which puts you closer to the centre of gravity than your leftish overall lean suggests. Where you really break away, it's sharp: only 15% of the country agreed with you that defence spending should stay untouched rather than fund welfare and growth, and barely one in five backed your view that the UK has listened to its indigenous communities.

Early days here — with 47 scored votes behind you, this read is sturdy, but there's no circle data strong enough yet to name an ally or a clash. That's the open thread worth watching.

This is your first profile, and it already has a fault line worth tracking: an egalitarian on the big structural questions who turns fiscally cautious the moment welfare architecture gets built. Keep voting — every ballot sharpens this picture, and a fresh read lands weekly to tell you whether the thrift wins out, or the leveller does.
