Those poor people. Reduced to eating artwork road signs this Christmas.
I blame racism.

the darling of the establishment....lauded and hailed by the BBC. A rebel who actually IS the establishment himself.

A fake dissident.

There are surely dozens of other feckers ? guys with just as much talent ? graduating from Art school every month ?

ah, yes, the old Lib-Lefty politics being relevant, dare we say ?

Banksy probably staged the whole thieving event himself. I mean, there are surely no thieves in Peckham ? After shredding a painting at its auction, Banksy is happy to create AND destroy his own art. Publicity is King. There is no such thing as bad publicity.

Could have been a set-up by Banksy.
The other option is an art dealer bunged some local'tradesmen' £500 for 10 minutes work.
It's going to be difficult to sell on the open market, because the sign is Council property and stolen goods, as such.

It'd be a nice talking point to have in your home bar or local social club but as previous posters have mentioned the sign is council property, their are clear pics of the lads that removed it so either they give it back or I cant imagine that the boys in blue will have too much trouble finding them.

Zero chance. And lets not forget the sign was there for a reason. Served a pratical purpose. Until some over-privileged prat decides to virtue signal by way of defacing it, turning it into a shiny bauble that some moron, who has not even got the brains to cover its face, very publicly nicks it, whilst surrounded by people filming.

A snap-shot of life in 2023 Britain. Imbecilic on a variety of levels.

a staged robbery ? the robber was wearing a jacket that matched the street-sign.

........................................

as an aside, does anybody on here really believe that the death of Robbo ( Rival graffiti hooligan who also taunted the cops ) was an accident ?

he, allegedly, fell down a flight of steps

I heard he now goes by ‘MrRobbo’ and occasionally posts on football forums. May just be a conspiracy theory though…

how about arresting Banksy for vandalising a traffic-sign and endangering the lives of drivers ?

I agree. The duplicity is obvious, but not surprising.

a nice quote from the cops below. Nice to see where they stand in relation to the law.
