About these figures
Taxes are not earmarked for particular services. The government pools what it raises and decides spending separately. In 2025-26 it also borrowed to cover part of what it spent, so taxes paid for less than all of it. This chart shares your tax in the same proportions as the spending your taxes help pay for.
The starting point is the Treasury's total expenditure on services for 2025-26: £1,227.6 billion spent on public services, benefits and debt interest. Outturn means what was actually spent, as opposed to plans. That total already leaves out £132.5 billion of accounting adjustments, mostly depreciation and VAT that public bodies pay and get back, which take it to £1,360.1 billion. Student loans are not counted as spending in it.
The calculator then leaves out £35.4 billion that the taxes it covers do not pay for, and shares your tax across the remaining £1,192.2 billion:
Named programmes such as HS2 come from HM Treasury's OSCAR II database (provisional figures for 2025-26). They show what each spent on staff, goods and services, investment, grants and benefits, leaving out depreciation, provisions and loans. They are part of the line they sit under, not extra to it. Hinkley Point C does not appear: it is privately financed and paid for through electricity bills.
Spending is grouped by purpose, using the UN's Classification of the Functions of Government (COFOG), whichever department or council spends it. The methodology explains each category.
