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.
