The Split-Ticket Realist
You want a Britain that's leaner and less deferential all at once: republican, sceptical of universal handouts, but also unmoved by green targets and student-debt sympathy. Your "yes" to abolishing the monarchy sits next to your "yes" on ending the pension triple lock and cutting woodland targets — this isn't ideology, it's an appetite for cutting things that feel like legacy costs, sacred cows included.
You split with the national majority almost as often as you join it — siding with the country on two in three votes, but breaking hard on the ones that matter to your worldview: most of Britain wants electrification accelerated and student loans reformed, you don't. Where the nation feels sentimental (the crown, the triple lock), you're the one voting to strip it back.
Ladywood, though, is where you're truly at home — you're rarely the outlier locally, running with your area's near-unanimous view on Brexit, on Burnham, on abolishing the monarchy. Your one local break — voting no on the student loan question when your area's single other voter said otherwise — is a rare moment of going it alone in a place that usually agrees with you.
You've never voted on health, technology, transport or rights — a striking gap given how opinionated you are on pensions and education. For someone this decided on economic and constitutional questions, staying silent on the NHS is the profile's loosest thread.
This is early days by volume but the shape is already sharp — thirty-one scored votes in, and the throughline (cut legacy costs, keep local instincts, distrust deference) is holding. Vote on health or rights next and we'll see whether the realist in you stays this consistent, or whether the NHS is where your left instincts finally win out.
