The Welfare Loyalist

Who you are

You're a redistributive, welfare-first voter who wants finance reined in, utilities un-privatised, and the two-child cap scrapped — a Britain where the state is the backstop, not the market. Your left votes cluster hardest on welfare and economy: you called banks too powerful, privatisation a failure, and inequality a democratic problem.

Vs Britain

You're less predictable than your leaning suggests — siding with the national majority on 12 of 19 votes, but breaking left of the country on Pride month and right of it on faster medicine trials and reindustrialisation timing. You backed £15bn extra for defence, a distinctly hawkish note in an otherwise welfare-first record.

On your patch

Blackpool South mostly walks with you — unanimous on Gibraltar's Schengen deal, compulsory voting, and UBI — but it split from you hard on childcare funding and the police "ethical reset," where your area voted no and you weren't far off yourself.

Blind spots

You've never voted on immigration, housing, or justice — striking gaps for someone this decided on welfare and economy, and the places most likely to sharpen or complicate your left lean.

What's next

Fourteen scored votes is enough to see the shape of you, not the whole picture — cast a few more on housing or justice and next week's profile gets sharper, truer, and harder to fake.
