Myself and my wife will hopefully be retiring to Spain in a couple of years , can we still receive our uk government pensions ? also what tax would we pay on our private and UK pensions when we move ??

No one knows how Brexit might affect us living in Spain. Until there is a deal or no deal nothing is certain

As you are not thinking of moving for a couple of years I suggested you wait and see what happens

At present if a non EU citizen (who is not a family member of a person already living in Spain) wants to settle in Spain, they require at least 27,000€ p.a. income.

Brexit might mean newcomers from UK will be treated the same.

That is just one person's best guess / hope. It means nothing in the real world.
