The photos are only two seconds apart. With no driver in the vehicle that is probably all that is needed to establish it was parked. The vehicle may have been actually parked for much longer. Nothing to see here.

Erm, did you LOOK at the photo? hehe

(Y'know, the fact that it's the rear of a van. Unless you or the warden are Superman, that's going to be a difficult argument to win...)

Did I say the photos showed no driver in the van? Er, no. The photos were taken, and ascertaining of no driver in the van is an immediately preceding or immediately subsequent event.

I was in the van, pulling into a parking space by the wholesaler, engine running indicator on. Apparently this estate is notorious for this type of thing, not a local one to me.

You clearly implied it. Don't try to get clever after the event, it doesn't work...

Your assumption, not my inference.
It could always be challenged. Two favourable outcomes:
Winning or learning.
OP. Out of interest, was it a no stopping or no parking location?
Anyway I have no personal interest/business in this.
