Because ever since the Domesday Book the then current government and successive ones have been collating data on us and our doings with a view to working out how much to shaf...errr tax us to keep the coffers full.

I guess they just want to know that they are getting all that is their due and that no one is pulling a fast one..But under the guise of looking for terrorists.

They only go after smugglers because of lost tax revenue after all..not because they care that we smoke or drink ourselves to death..
