Why?
Bigron:
I've just had my Tax Code notice, and once again I am wondering why, after having paid tax all of my working life on my salary, do the robbing sons-of-bachelors tax me AGAIN on my State Pension?
I know that theres F all I can do about it - they make the rules - but why? >:( :(
Ron.

Don't worry Ron, you should have a company pension like mine. They tax me on that, and just include my State pension in the total to be calculated for tax. It is all because this is "unearned income", and when we were paying into the pension scheme the amount being paid in was not taxed!
So much for encouraging youngsters to pay into a pension scheme eh?
This is why I have no conscience at all about becoming older and costing the State more to look after. We have, and still are, paying our dues! :P :P
Bigron:
That is just downright fraud - no way was it unearned! I earned every penny and they took it from me without my having any option.
I agree with you about availing myself of the health care due to me, now that I am crumbling away, having reached 29 years of age - but I'm worth it!

I am surprised there is tax topay on a UK statepension. I believe it is 70thin the world in amount. Behind the likes ofMexico. Worst in Europe.. Thanks tosuccessive governments.. Cheapskates.

Is it not because your pension is above a certain tax threshold....?
In other words, you must have a good private pension.... combined with the state pension....?
