License fee is usually a flat charge for an annual license plate renewal. It can vary for commerical vehicles, and heavy trucks, but other than that it is typically a flat tax, and is essentially an admin fee.
UK road tax is based on year of manufacture, emissions, fuel type, etc (going from memory here). It is a graduated tax intended to influence a purchaser's choice of vehicles as I recall.
