Manchester Airport

Just wondering why flying Ryanair to Manchester incurs "taxes & charges" a third greater (€30 as opposed to €20) than flying to London's Stansted Airport? And, Stansted seems to be a little more expensive than the other UK airports that Ryanair flies to.

Why is flying in and out of Manchester Airport so expensive? I find it hard to believe the taxes are significantly different than at other airports in Britain. So, what charges does Ryanair incur at Manchester that they don't incur at other airports? Or is does Michael O'Leary just want to fleece Irish Manchester United fans?
