You want a country that builds faster, spends smarter and doesn't flinch from cutting the state loose where it's failed — planning reform, scepticism of "good growth" rebrands, a hard NO on the idea privatisation was some great betrayal. But you're not a doctrinaire free-marketeer: you'd scrap the two-child benefit cap, you think the City has too tight a grip on the economy, and you balked at £15bn more for defence. This is a Britain that governs itself efficiently at the top while looking out for the people underneath it.

You're a coin-flip against the country — siding with the national majority on exactly half your votes. Where you diverge, it's telling: you doubted Farage was in "deep trouble" when most of Britain thought he was, and you're unconvinced right-wing media is the danger everyone else says it is.

Stoke-on-Trent Central mostly nods along with you — unanimous on Motability VAT, pride month, planning reform, utilities. But your own area split hard against you on the two-child cap and on holding politicians to their promises, a reminder you're not simply parroting the room.

Eleven scored votes across just four categories — governance, defence, welfare, economy — means this is early days. You've never touched immigration, housing, health, justice or culture: the categories that usually define a right-leaning voter's real edges are still totally unwritten.

This is a first sketch, not a verdict — cast a few votes on immigration or health and the picture sharpens fast. Come back next week; the more you vote, the truer this gets.
