MO BANKSY




Guerilla Grafitti - Banksy stikes again in Bristol! This time it's for keeps...
The notorious 'guerrilla artist' known only as Banksy has struck again and this time he seems to have hit the rat on the head so to speak. His latest urban delicacy is situated on the side of a sex clinic on famous Park St and shows a scene that has probably happened to some of us in one way or another. Well maybe that's just us then...

Anyway, the local council asked the public to vote on whether the piece should stay and a whopping 97% voted for its survival, with the main reason being that Banksy is a Bristolian and that it brightened up the 'urban landscape.' Only six votes were registered to as against the piece, with three arguing the work might encourage imitators and other graffiti that was less desirable; the others said graffiti of any sort made the city look scruffy.
