   While profiling by race has declined, voters are still profiled using wealth and income indicators, plus data of who voted in past elections.

   If you're scored as unlikely to vote, you probably won't be contacted at all.

   Such profiling leads to a vicious cycle of disenfranchisement rooted in class.

     All UK Parties rely on international companies for their digital campaigning infrastructure.

     Labour is particularly close with Experian – a credit reference agency with extraordinary powers to harvest personal data.

     The lack of transparency leaves us with questions about the lawfulness of how data is separated and shared.
