Why are taxes so high on BA int'l flights, but not on easyJet int'l flights?

It can only be a matter of time before they offer o/w N,V fares etc on all routes from LGW. I suspect its near the top of Willie Wonkas in-tray.

So it's a bit wider than an LGW-specific response.

With regard to those one way fares to AMS, why are taxes more at LHR than LGW? ex-LHR (£23.40)and ex-LGW(£18.90). I thought APD and PSC are the same at both airports. Or are there additional charges at LHR?
