Because the website and even the party website doesn't list any kind of seed platform/ideas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Your_Party_(UK)#Ideology_and_positions
Thanks for sharing.
It is also important to be clear that this wiki is basically a guess based on founder comments. As all of the proposed positions will be down to the democratic party process.
As the membership control is the main point of this party. As such the platform and Ideas can only be a guide. Untill membership is formed and has agreed to them.
The draft founding docs when released are expected to head this way. But it is entirely down to membership votes to agree this. Not the founders,
This is why so little is on the website ATM. It is not authed to do so until the members approve it.
Yeah, makes sense. It is a bit of a chicken-egg problem. But the naked ask for signing up without some kind of idea what kind of party wants to be formed seems poorly thought out and might affect conversion. As a complete outsider to the UK, my opinion doesn't really count, however if there are equally uninformed UK voters I am not sure they are going to be convinced to sign up. This is where a leader statement sharing a vision of the party would help. Transparency of who is doing the organizing and statements from them on why they are doing it would also help. Putting a human face on the proto-party with emotional CTAs can only help people on the fence decide to join. The weak, generic narrative of "for the people!" just doesn't cut it.
