Loosely speaking - in UK - off-street parking has standard rate VAT, on-street is VAT exempt. But it's very much a rule of thumb, not a strict regulation.

I don't know of any other tax on parking per se?

Maybe they were talking about VED which is sort of about using the public highway in that you can declare the vehicle as off the road and stop paying it. But the complicated emissions/price/age based charge means it doesn't really make sense to think of it that way anymore. E.g. A zero-rated vehicle still has the same impact when parked on the road.
