We used the national statistics data for this. For the gory details
see this code:

https://github.com/okfn/openspending/blob/master/openspending/lib/calculator.py

Some of the specific data may be in these two datasets on the DataHub
(which I think you created :-) ):

<http://thedatahub.org/dataset/hmrc-national-statistics-tax-receipts-taxpayers>
<http://thedatahub.org/dataset/hmrc-national-statistics-income-tax-and-personal-incomes>

It might be worth creating a new dataset just for this specific
dataset so we have a clear long-term reference for this info.
