    Most people will have at least half that allowance taken up by the state pension: but the other half could just as easily be used to cover the rental income from a BTL, which would then also be tax free.

    The rental income could use up the personal allowance but the rental property is not as good value as the pension.
    Weasel words: on another thread you say people should somehow know without being told that a "pension" means an income : here you say they are two totally different things.

    Since when the facts about taxation weasel words. Your response to the bit you quoted bore no relation to what I typed. Perhaps you just wanted to get on your soapbox...
