That seems to suggest that the State pension of former local/ central govt. employees should only be taxed in the UK?

Absolutely correct although there are exceptions such as the majority of the NHS. Although it is referred to as the Government Pension. The old age State Pension is exported tax free and taxed in Portugal. These are two separate pensions.
