Download UK Public Spending Data Series 1692-2026

You can download any of the raw data series used to compile the public spending data in ukpublicspending.co.uk. You select the data series you want and then copy-paste the tab delimited data from a textbox on this page into your spreadsheet.

Warning: Be careful about using raw data. The raw data series are not “curated,” meaning that you cannot be sure if the data series applies for a specific year and a specific function. A data series typically does not extend the whole length of UK history. Check out multiyear download if you want full-length curated data series.

  1. A group of functionally related spending data series

You can also remove individual data series that you don’t want.

Select Functional Data Series Group: Select a group of data series to download (you can add individual data series later):

Add Individual Data Series: Select Spending Data Series to add to download (you can add more later):
