Well it varies but its anywhere between $250k and $300k and Yes thats only what you pay over the $300k, not all of your wages.

First £6k (around 10k USD) is tax free, then the next part up till £40k (about $60k-$80k) is just 20% tax, then 40% up to this new level of 45% for the part over £150k (over $250-$300k USD)

UK tax is actually very low compared to the rest of Europe, but higher than the states.
