The Devolutionist Landlord
You want a Britain that hands power to the regions, protects welfare from the brake, and scraps the monarchy on the way out — a devolved, redistributive country where Westminster stops deciding things for Liverpool. Your votes on Burnham's transfer-of-power push, abolishing the monarchy, and defending unconditional welfare payments all point the same way: London gives, the regions take back.
You're not a reflexive contrarian — you match the national mood on Burnham's rise and Starmer's legacy — but on the things that matter most to you, you break from it hard. Britain backed the £15bn defence spend and tougher sentencing for non-British offenders; you voted no on both, holding a harder-left line than the country did.
Liverpool Riverside is where your instincts get validated, not tested — you agreed with your local area on almost every vote logged, from monarchy abolition to devolution to Burnham. The one glaring exception is housing: while your area skews left generally, you voted against the childcare expansion and sided right on housing twice, a landlord's caution sitting oddly next to a devolutionist's convictions.
You've never voted on foreign policy, health, or crime beyond sentencing — a striking gap for someone this fluent on constitution and welfare. Filling in Health or Employment would tell us whether your left lean is total or stops at the wallet.
This is early days — 31 scored votes is enough to see the shape, not the whole picture. Vote on health or foreign policy next and we'll find out whether the Housing exception is a one-off or the start of a pattern.
