Past elections, shown as they stood at the time. Useful for seeing how the same household would have looked under the law and the pledges of that year.

Two kinds of statement, both labelled

Computed: tax and benefit effects for a household in your bands, calculated with the open-source PolicyEngine UK model from a party's published pledges. Documented: a pledge that applies to a household like yours, quoted exactly from the party's or candidate's own published material, with source and date. Where a candidate has published nothing on a topic, it says so, in the same place, for everyone.
