Fiscal model
Coalition fiscal model
Every quantified figure each party put in front of voters at GE2024 — and the headline figures in the Programme for Government 2025 — turned into one line in a structured dataset. Toggle owners on and off below to model the combined annual cost, broken down by party, policy area and confidence. Stated figures are kept distinct from our unit-cost estimates so you can see exactly which numbers are theirs and which are ours.
Step 1 · Pick a coalition
Toggle parties on or off to model their combined claims
Step 2 · The annual arithmetic

Step 3 · Per-owner annual cost
How each selected party stacks up
Step 4 · By policy area
Where the money goes (or stays)
Step 5 · The underlying claims
