Some of the price difference will be down to vat, but even if you overestimate it to 20% then you are still looking at another 20% of the pricing that is mostly profiteering on sony's part.
As far as the uk price, it will have been set by sony europe just like the euro price as give or take a bit of variation in the exchange rate it is the same price there as it is in europe.
