The pattern no single source sees

Data

Interactive analyses built from primary sources. Each one is assembled from the same registers the newsroom reads — the underlying records, and the licence they are published under, are listed on sources.

Economy and money

UK economy and money

Inflation, growth, retail sales, unemployment and pay from the ONS; Bank Rate, mortgage rates and approvals, and consumer credit from the Bank of England. Checked every five minutes on release mornings.

Political money

Every donation reported to the Electoral Commission, flowing from the type of donor to the recipient — and a breakdown of how each party is funded. Click any party to filter, then any segment to see the individual payments behind it.

Reform UK raised 91% of its money from individual donors; Labour 37%, with another 37% from trade unions.

Who funds British politics

Not just where party money comes from, but how few people it comes from — plus the donors who give across party lines, and when the money arrives. Possible only once each donor resolves to a single identity however their name is spelled.

One donor accounts for 59% of Reform UK’s £25.4m. The Liberal Democrats’ largest gives 25%, across 270 donors.

Member dossier

Four public registers on one timeline for a single member: what they declared, what they received, what they said in the chamber and how they voted. Each register publishes separately and none of it is joined.

Chronology only — every entry is lawful, reported activity, and proximity in time implies nothing.
