Where Does My Money Go?

Where Does My Money Go represents another milestone in the UK’s transparency movement. We know that transparency changes individual and institutional behaviour and this new tool will have a big impact on the way the public sector is held to account by UK citizens.

I’m loving this: you can click on any of those dots (on the actual web-page) to see what it represents. The slider moves you back and forth year-to-year. It’s an amazing way of visualizing public spending.

The Open Knowledge Foundation has created a visualisation so that everyone can easily understand British government spending.

Online tools can now help citizens curious about what their taxes are being spent on.

Absolutely brilliant website showing where all your tax money is spent. Go play now.

Where Does My Money Go? provides access to Treasury public spending data in a simple and brilliant way.
