Because the clause is invalid without that KEY phrase. It's bad news. Stop trying to act up.0 -
Please tell me this is a windup. Because if not I can see more tears on the horizon0

I believe some councils collect dog poo and test its DNA to find dog owners that are not picking up after their dog. So it could be easy0 -

Maybe the neighbour would be so kind? :rotfl:0 -
I'm just waiting for "accidental landlord" and "following a relationship breakdown" and my bingo card will be complete.0

No one is saying that it's right that tenants can do things that you're not happy about or do things that the contract states they shouldn't, but nothing can physically be enforced unless you go to court. This is a lengthy and expensive process, it's one of the things that comes hand in hand with being a landlord.

in that case PLEASE understand what you have said above is dangerous nonsense
you are no longer living in the UK. You intend to return to the UK in the future.
your agent is following the law by deducting basic rate tax from the rent they collect. Granted of course you know nothing about tenancy law so I'll say it again - that is the law.
the law says you MUST submit a tax return. The money deducted by the agent is not the end of the matter, in fact it is the worst outcome for you because HMRC now know you are letting a property, receiving rent, but have not submitted a tax return. You can therefore expect to be fined for non submission when they chase you for it.
your agents is not an accountant and knows nothing about your tax position. Your agent cannot possibly submit an accurate profit calculation - all they can do (and probably are) is meet the legal requirement imposed on them as your agent, deduct and pay over 20% tax. End of their responsibility, what comes next will be your fault and your problem.
go and read the non resident landlord scheme rules NOW before it is too late for you to get out of the hole you have dug through letting a property without any idea at all, or willingness to educate yourself first, of what that entails
