They should be able to provide the breakdown of the fare, plus detailed taxes and charges. Otherwise they’ve just made it up. Seriously though, it will be in their system down to every last penny as the fare calculation.

Ask them for it. Anything labelled YQ tyoe of charge is carrier’s own surcharge going into their pocket not any government tax and is not an airport or immigration fee etc.either. All of these are clearly identified.

About £200 is govt APD tax of UK government for longhaul flight departing the UK so this does account for a big chunk and rhe rest may well stack up as about right when you see the breakdown.
