I'm confused.. can't they appeal High Court decisions (since the UKSC was formed after the government didn't like the High Court's decisions in the Diego Garcia thing)? [1]

Yes, but there would have to be an error of law in the High Court judgment.

(And you'd usually appeal to the Court of Appeal first.)
