The Fiscal Realist

Who you are

You want a Britain run on tight economics and loose geography: hold the line on benefits, keep the Treasury disciplined, spend where it counts — defence, medicine, British cement — but push the actual decisions down to regional mayors and councils rather than Westminster. It's a fiscally right, structurally devolved vision: London holds the purse strings looser on control, tighter on cash.

Vs Britain

You split almost evenly with the national mood — siding with the majority on 9 of 14 votes — but where you diverge, it's pointed. Britain wanted faster planning reform by a landslide; you voted no. The nation shrugged at scrapping the two-child cap; you were firmly against any softening.

On your patch

Portsmouth North is where you feel most at home — you matched your area on nearly every vote, from backing devolution to welcoming the Motability VAT change. The one local outlier: planning reform, where your own patch voted unanimously against it too, so even your rare against-the-nation moment had home support.

Blind spots

You've cast votes on economy and welfare with real conviction, but crime, immigration, housing, justice and culture are all untouched — the fault lines that usually define a right-leaning voter are, for you, still blank pages.

What's next

Eleven scored votes is a shape, not yet a portrait — vote on housing or immigration next and we'll see whether your devolutionist streak is a genuine crack in the right-wing armour or just noise. Every vote you cast sharpens this a little more; come back next week and we'll show you the difference.
