johncocker Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 (edited) It was classed as racist by some utter plonker and a couple of muppets from the council. Clearly it's not at all racist, it's a painting of a few birds?!? not racist? The "Foreign Bird" is portrayed as colourful and sexy, whereas the "Local Worm Eaters" are grey and dirty pigeons, we like to shoo-away! ---------- Post added 05-10-2014 at 15:17 ---------- He's published photos of it on his website, so it was genuine. Estimated worth at £400,000... its graffitti ...sort of Misses the point when it becomes property:huh: Edited October 5, 2014 by johncocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L00b Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Not that I particularly dislike Banksy's stuff, but where Clacton is concerned, personally I'd prefer this kind of vandalism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
