To raise revenue. Why is it fair to tax pensions when they've been accrued over a lifetime of saving (from after tax funds)?
Take one of the benefits that isn’t part of taxable income (some benefits are actually taxable, like Jobseeker’s Allowance but ignore that for now), like Universal credit.

It’s based on need. And comes from the government. So what you suggest is that the government gives someone universal credit, takes some of it back in taxes and then has to increase the amount of universal credit given as it no longer covers need. So the net amount someone receives is the same as they get now but now there’s a bigger starting amount and tax paid on that. No extra revenue, lots of admin and extra costs.

Sounds like a plan.
 
Our street has residents parking but outside our house isn't marked as one of the residents bays so 'randoms' are forever parking there - more often than not I can't park outside my own house 🤷‍♂️
I've always wondered about that, noticed it quite a few times over the Manselton/Brynhyfryd area, there will be all lines designating residents only parking, then a few houses will have absolutely nothing, then it carries on with the residents only bays. I really don't get that at all, it's not fair on the resident who has not got a residents only bay outside their house, I wonder why they would even do that? Seems crazy to me.
