You are not taxed twice on RSUs
RSUs are taxed as income at vest (income tax + NI on the vest-day value). Your base cost then resets to the vest price — only the gain (or loss) after vesting is subject to Capital Gains Tax when you sell.
A what-if — your calculator only changes when you apply it

Type a vest value above for an instant estimate — or add RSU income in Settings to unlock the full vesting schedule, sell-strategy and CGT controls. RSUs are taxed as income (tax + NI) at vest, and your base cost (what you count as having paid) resets to the vest price for any future CGT.
