I see 79% or so for that cohort in UK, 75% for France. Unemployment - 5% in UK, 13% in France, an eight point difference, offset by roughly half via inactive differential.

Employment level is quite close, and don't forget that part time is circa 25% in the UK vs 17% in France (43% vs 31 for women).
