Yes, taxes collected by govt effectively go into a single pool. The money is not ringfenced for particular purposes.
Both in the UK (where I'm from) and in the US (where I live now), there are separate taxes ('social security' in the US, 'national insurance' in the UK), but the AFAICT this is just a trick to obscure the true rate of payroll/income taxes.
