Like you I pay taxes on pensions and other incomes, for income tax I am registered to pay in France, I still have to fill in a tax declaration to HMG and as the tax year in France runs from Jan 1st to Dec 31st a year in arrears the UK accept my tax return as not being liable for UK tax because I am resident in France.
