    Question is, was the car already there, or was it part of the "installation"?
    The car was there for two years apparently. 
    There you go then. If someone dumps a car in your road and the council do nothing to move it, just get Banksie to whack up some art next to it and it will be gone within 24 hours!

    On Westmoor Street, announced 20 mins ago 




    He wants to be careful he don't get sued by Suzuki, they had similar on the wheel covers of their SJ jeeps back in the 80's. Although, to be fair, their rhino was snagging another rhino and not a Nissan Micra
    TBH one shagging rhino looks very like another to me.
    Can that be found on HornHub?

    I’m sure the council will wisely invest any windfall in a bus lane / parking restriction / floating bus stop or other similar scheme 😉😉😀😀

    Love it.

    If someone called Banksy (who doesn't like to identity himself) can graffiti a wall why can't someone else doodle over it. 

    Banksy mate.....if you want your art to be appreciated then paint it on a canvas & frame it. If not, be prepared for the consequences. 


    But his art IS appreciated without doing that. That's kinda the point.
    Not sure this golfer fella gets it. Bless

    I wonder if it's a case of the Kings new clothes sometimes.

    This is 'must have' stencil art work which people buy primarily to sell at a profit

    The balloon girl was purchased at auction for £1,042,000, moments later it partially shredded, but the buyer decided to keep it anyway.  She re-titled the work as 'Love is in the bin', re-auctioned it and got 18.5 million pounds.

    Robbie Williams is said to be a big fan of Banksy, but despite this he sold two of his pieces for seven million - who wouldn't be a fan at that amount of profit?


    Dunno about the King's new clothes, Charlie is usually in a fairly tidy looking suit unless he's on some wind blasted celtic hillside when he'll sport a Barbour, nobody seems to comment on whether he's been out in this, that or another whistle before. Unlike all his female rellys who get the nth degree over every inch of their clobber, must be tiresome.
    It was always the Emperor's new clothes that everybody thought they had to agree to like, for fear of something or other.

    Thanks Billy I stand corrected.  

    I seem to be getting more and more things like that wrong as the blue matter disappears.   :)
