I am going to describe the statistics given in the pie chart, concerning the money spent by the United Kingdom’s government in the year 1996, which had a total budget of £ 315 billion.
A very important question asked by many people is, where does the money go? To begin with, the health and personal department, which is responsible for all the government hospitals acquires almost £53 billion which makes it almost half the amount of what the government pays for social security £100 billion which is the biggest category . Then comes an amount of £38 billion spent on government schools and nurseries in general for education. Furthermore, the United kingdom’s budget for the industry agriculture and employment was approximately £12 billion. In addition, law and order in addition to the defense made a total of £33 billion .And another £9 billion for cars, trains and buses. Last but not least budgets of £36 billion were put on housing heritage, debt interest and some other expenditure.
In conclusion a huge budget of £315 billion was spent by the United Kingdom’s government in order to furnish all the citizens’ needs.
