This idea of giving all United Kingdom taxpayers an itemised receipt for the tax they have paid is excellent: https://twitter.com/theresecoffey/status/383098375060873216
Presumably only taxpayers will get the receipt.
This could work to the Coalition's advantage in that the more detail given over where taxes are spent the more insistent will be the demands for unnecessary expenditure to be cut.
Bland boxes that just appropriate overall percentages spent on "Police" and "Highways" will be meaningless.
But itemised breakdowns will spur the cuts agenda.
