What collective evidence - if any - do we have to the contrary please? I will take it up with them but at the moment I have nothing to present to them. Thanks

it really is the extra carrier surcharge imposed by BA. The evidence is just pricing up a CW return exUS and an F return and compare the TFC. The only difference is now an extra $200 per flight carrier surcharge going from CW to F.

Ask them to specify what these new government imposed taxes are exactly and see what they claim.
