Q: Can I opt out of the electoral register being provided to political parties?

No. You can opt out of the "Open Register" which will partially limit a Political Party's Access to Your Data, but in the United Kingdom, it is important to understand that you cannot be removed from the "full electoral register," which political parties are legally entitled to access for electoral purposes, so during the election period, if you are on the electoral register, you will be visible to the political parties, unless you have used the Anonymous Voter route.
