Description

In this episode of Full Comment, Danielle Reece-Greenhalgh and Edward Grange explore how the deliberate act of felling the tree at Sycamore Gap led to national outrage and a criminal damage conviction carrying serious custodial implications. But is it just about a tree? How is this different to criminal damage to Edward Colston’s statue in Bristol, toppled and defaced, but the defendants were found not guilty? Find out in our latest episode of Full Comment.
