Conflating the Planning Inspectorate with "the Government" in this case is like stating that "the Government" stopped your benefits when you cease to be eligible for Job Seekers Allowance. The EDL appear to state that members of the Government were involved in decision-making, when in fact what happened was just part of the due process of planning and appeals. There appears to be confusion between policy-making and policy implementation.

And the High Court - is that part of the Government? Or is it part of an independent appeals process?

If the Secretary of State had been involved in the decision-making process (as in these), the EDL would have had a valid point - but as he wasn't, they don't.
