That’s a bummer, and this bit only adds insult to injury, “The Holy thorn has no tree preservation order (TPO) which means the vandals are unlikely to be prosecuted. If it was protected by a TPO vandals could face a fine of up to £20,000.” http://www.thisissomerset.co.uk/news/Holy-Thorn-desecrated/article-2989272-detail/article.html
