You are a guarded egalitarian: firmly on the side of public provision, wealth taxes, social care and greener growth, but unconvinced that a generous state requires open borders or a soft security policy. Your instinct is practical rather than doctrinaire — politics should improve “people’s day-to-day lives”, not become a referendum on wokeness, breakfast television or national decline.

You have moved from The Green Gatekeeper to The Guarded Egalitarian, though the underlying character has held steady: social-democratic at home, defensive about who gets in and how the UK protects itself. The newer votes sharpen the contrast — more climate and international-development ambition, alongside tougher scrutiny of benefits and a willingness to bar serious offenders from public office.

You sit close to the UK’s middle overall, siding with the national majority about as often as you resist it. The tension is clearest when you reject the country’s enthusiasm for a codified constitution while backing stronger climate priorities and refusing the Farage–Lowe alliance: left on the substance of government, wary of grand institutional or populist projects.

Your Centre-Right circle is a loose fit, not a political home: you run with it a little more often than against it, but your economic and environmental instincts pull left. Stocko is your closest ally, especially on transport and defence; stephencalder is the sharper clash, with agreement on health but real distance on governance and the constitution.

Your next ten votes will test the live question in your politics: can an expansive, greener social settlement coexist with restrictive immigration and hawkish defence instincts? Keep voting and the picture will sharpen — every ballot makes the portrait more exact.

You want an active, redistributive state: higher taxes where needed, serious investment in care, clean energy and public services, and less power hoarded in Westminster. But your social conscience has a border; immigration and defence pull you sharply right, making you generous at home and guarded at the gate.

A while back, you were THE FORTRESS REDISTRIBUTOR; you have not abandoned that settlement, but you have made its gate more visible. Recent votes sharpen the immigration and tradition instinct while your economic left remains intact — backing a wealth tax and care levy, rejecting rigid balanced-budget rules, and supporting clean-energy investment.

You are neither a habitual contrarian nor a reliable consensus voter: you have landed with the UK majority about as often as against it. You can share the nation’s appetite for lower migration and basic standards, but resist its louder instincts on gunboats, punitive spectacle and cultural panic; as you put it, “social progressivism” may lose its head, but it is hardly killing the country.

Your Centre-Right circle is an influence, not a home: you agree often enough to belong, but not enough to disappear into it. Stocko is your closest ally, especially on transport and defence; stephencalder is the sharper clash, with health in common but governance and constitutional instincts pulling you apart.

Your next ten votes will test whether the gate hardens further, or whether your left-wing economics keeps overruling your right-wing instincts on migration, rights and order. The picture is already coherent — and it gets truer every time you vote.

You're a redistributive economic left-winger — wealth tax, CGT equalised with income tax, utilities nationalised, GDP swapped for wellbeing — who fences that generosity off with unanimous support for immigration control, deportation of foreign offenders, and no benefits for non-citizens. It's a Britain that looks after its own fiercely, and decides who counts as "its own" just as fiercely.

Last read you were the Guarded Redistributor, generous at home, hard at the gate — that tension hasn't resolved, it's hardened. Welfare and economy have gone from lean-left to unanimous-left, immigration and defence to unanimous- and strongly-right; the split that defined you is now the defining feature, not a wrinkle.

You're mostly a majority voter — siding with the country on 42 of 60 scored votes — but you break from it where it matters to you: against Rosebank drilling when most of Britain said yes, against fracking, against Scottish devolution when the country leaned similarly no but you're firmer on it.

You run with a Centre-Right circle at a middling 57% agreement — closest to Stocko, in step on transport and defence but splitting on elections and constitution, and furthest from stephencalder, aligned only on health while diverging sharply on governance and welfare. You're the left flank of a right-leaning crowd, borrowing their hard edges on borders while refusing theirs on the state.

Housing and rights remain your least settled ground — mixed on one, clearly right on the other — and that's where the next votes will tell us whether the fortress opens up or closes further. Every vote you cast sharpens this picture; check back next week and see which way it's leaning.

You want council homes rebuilt, wealth taxed instead of income, and social care workers paid properly through a Fair Pay Agreement — a genuinely social-democratic economics. But you pair it with strict controls on immigration and a comfortable YES to nuclear weapons and tanker bases abroad — this isn't confusion, it's a settled view that solidarity at home requires firm borders and hard power beyond them.

You were "The Consensus Leftist" — agreeable, thin, mostly riding the national majority. That's still broadly true, but the record has sharpened: economy, welfare, employment and foreign policy have hardened unanimously left, while immigration and defence have hardened just as unanimously right. The blind spots are closing into a real, if tension-filled, worldview.

You're rarely a maverick — siding with the national majority on 30 of 41 recent votes, from nationalising British Steel to keeping the nuclear deterrent. Your breaks from the crowd are pointed, not random: against the grain on whole-life sentences and MPs' second jobs, where Britain went one way and you went the other on principle.

You follow a Centre-Right crowd and agree with them just over half the time — closer to stephencalder, your clearest ally, but you split hard with throughthestormdavid, especially on the constitution. You're not running with your circle so much as triangulating past it.

Your welfare-left, border-right split is the most interesting thing about you — the next votes on housing and rights will show whether it's a genuine synthesis or a fault line waiting to widen. Vote on, and next week's read will know which.

You want a Britain that runs on fairness at the small scale — public utilities in public hands, a legal cap on how hot your workplace can get, more bank holidays for the people who work in it. It's a gentle, practical left: less about revolution, more about decency being written into law.

You're rarely the story here — on ten recent votes with national data, you landed with the majority every single time. When 78% of Britain worried about media ownership skewing politics, you were there; when the country split on IRGC proscription, you took the hawkish side with 100% of voters, breaking left-orthodoxy without even noticing.

Tooting doesn't just agree with you — it's unanimous with you, vote after vote, though each comparison rests on a single other local voter, so treat it as a hint of a like-minded street rather than proof.

You've voted on heatwaves and media barons but never once on housing, immigration, health or welfare — the classic tenants of Westminster debate are, for you, still unwritten pages.

Eight scored votes is a sketch, not a portrait — cast a few more, especially in housing or welfare, and this profile will start telling you things about yourself you haven't said out loud yet. We'll be watching, and rewriting, every week.
