Field notes
The homepage lays out views for revenue, expenditure, debt, local councils and economic snapshots, with charts and maps that it says can be tapped for more detail. It names HM Treasury, the ONS, HMRC and PESA as sources. The tax calculator and budget simulator are described as app tools; the page does not itself demonstrate their operation. Deeper monthly Spotlight reports are identified as subscriber-only.
