That's not the point. Who are you? One bod. Now if I could tell them all about 500 guys all like you, in your constituency. That's how elections are won.
That's why they really are all into the data. All parties. Trust me. All into it. All the time. Every single policy, every statement. Run through the data. Everyone is grouped and typified, forgotten, regrouped along different lines. A hundred times a week. To try and predict what they might get away with by messaging to certain groups. It might be more specific, the parties and affiliated organisations may well have long term lists for facebook accounts and data to go with them. Honestly, I'm not sure.
Cambridge Analytica got caught. But there seems little reason you can't do it in a 'clean room', away from any official party duty or links. And then you can tell people what to do, how to use this stuff.
It's also true that the job of managing your data is routinely handed (by this government) to overseas shitbags like Peter Thiel. I'm not sure what sort of access they have or how it can reasonably be restricted.
