The one tax that really really bugs me is that I get private medical insurance through work. Because it is taxed as a benefit I pay tax on the value (around £700 a year) but by having this I have saved the NHS over £20,000 in the last 3 years with 2 operations done privately, where I paid a portion of the treatment costs myself, yet I get taxed for freeing up an NHS bed.
Well You'd probly still be waitting to have the Ops done.

I don't earn enough to worry about tax avodance and will likely have to work till I shift this motal coil so not worred about a pension.
