Sorry, getting worn out by replying to this and missed the last bit.
I don't claim it's simple persecution and it was not my intention to make this point.

However, given that this case includes elements of discretion (such as the decision whether to retroactively grant planning permission) it seems a little strong to claim you know for a fact that the people involved were not in anyway swayed be prejudices you agree they may have had.

I have a reasonable level of faith in the multiple courts in the UK that have been involved
I'm not saying the council aren't biased to fuck - they're Tory after all - but this decision has been through pretty much every court in the land. That's good enough for me.

Glad you're happy.
FWIW, I have a reasonable level of faith in the courts of this country too, I'm just glad I'm not black or any other minotity as the evidence is that is had to go through them, I would not do as well is I were.

Edited for clarity.
