Sadly, one Banksy I can't see being lovingly protected for future enjoyment by the public.

Was ready to go 'meh' when I opened the thread but that is great

It’s all over SM having had the placard turned into a St George’s flag. 🙄

Oh dear - that's the problem with art, it's in the eye of the beholder. Could just as easily be a Palistine flag or a 'just stop oil' logo as a george dross.

It's about the right to protest, not the right to be a racist wetherspoons patron who sets fire to dustbins, but as always, the distinction is lost on some.

Given banksy's previous and the timing, I think it is more likely to be primarily about the arrests of palestine action protesters and then secondly about the more generalised oppression of protest.

A gavel? Is that an intentional nod towards the influence of American style justice?

His back catalogue is surprisingly hard hitting. There's a reason the Israelis hate him.

I know he's done stuff in Jerusalem.  Tbh, I thought they weren't so angry, visceral as this but that's just my view I guess. 

 

HMCTS confirm it's to be removed.  Tne Queens building is listed so it is required to be kept un altered (the building that is)

I’m sure Banksy’s quite satisfied that his work has had the desired effect.
