I think the difference in outcry is because we know exactly who cut the 500 year old Enfield tree down.

These's no mystery, it was Toby Carvery owners Mitchells & Butlers plc.

It's also well known that they are now facing legal action because of this, so currently it seems that some kind of justice may be served.

That wasn't the case for Sycamore Gap. When that first happened it was a mystery who had committed a senseless act of vandlim and if they would get away with it.

The discussion of whether Phil Urban, Mitchells & Butlers CEO, should go to prison or not will happen when the case goes to trial (...but we all know he won't).
