This doesn't seem to be quite true; the Electoral Commission have a PDF explaining who is allowed copies of the full, un-redacted register be it for free or for money: https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/sites/default/files/2019-08/List%20of%20people%20entitled%20to%20be%20supplied%20with%20the%20electoral%20register.pdf https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/sites/default/files/2... UKIP would be allowed a copy for free, being a registered political party. Those entitled to a copy for money are limited, rather than just "anyone who pays five grand". OTOH, the open, edited register is more widely available, but it has been possible to remove yourself from that and has been for some years. https://ico.org.uk/your-data-matters/electoral-register/ https://ico.org.uk/your-data-matters/electoral-register/

Apologies for the confusion; I've edited my comment to make it more clear. My understanding is that it costs £5k to register as a political party which is then entitled a copy for free. So no, you can't buy a copy of your local ward, but every few years you can spend a small amount of money and do a little paperwork to get a copy.
