FPM and any other party they all listen to ppl and act accordingly. but i dont know where u got the notion that FPM dont listen to ppl? do u have statistics?
i think FPM listened and acted to what the ppl want and the proof for that is the last elections. if they couldnt provide "everything" that the ppl wanted then it is a different notion.
as for the idea "in general" to parties listening to what the ppl want then i want to say that you are mistaken here, since even in the most democratic countries, parties make decision and "propose choices" and it is up to the ppl to either approve or disapprove of it and the examples are plenty. and only history will show or prove if it was the right decision or not, or even if that decision led to the better good or the worse.
as for the part of providing services i think u are mistaken in the difference btw parties and na2abat or baladiyat or something else.

A party platform, also known as a manifesto, is a list of the actions which a political party supports in order to
