I love it, it obviously represents my views on the current censorship of protesting against israel.

Its already been covered and is under guard, proving his point imo

Also, do we reckon that some people definitely know who Banksy is?

Oh yes, there will be quite a few people who know who Banksy is / are.
Its quite possible it's not one person but a group. Maybe 1 person designing and a few putting them up. Who knows?

There’s a really goo podcast series on BBC Sounds about Banksy.

*good

Also, is Banksy American? British judges don’t use gavels.

They're often boarded up and under guard to prevent people coming along with equipment to chisel them off the walls and sell the things, though. It's really not proving any political point there.

I think it needs two or three of them to do the actual piece live in the street.
Don't they do it in hi-vis at 4am or something?
I did wonder how they got away with this one slap bang in the middle of London though, there would be police in that area. They must have been in and out in a couple of minutes. Wonder if they put up plastic barriers or something to look like roadworks?

Surely the use of the gavel is to show the judges are corrupt? Controlled by the powers/highest bidder/money?

What would you think if the protester was Graham Linehan?

What would you think if it was Jennifer Lopez or Winnie the Pooh? It isn't so it's irrelevant.The artist is making a point so the content is not random

I misread and misread and misunderstood. I apologise unreservedly

It's remains a common misconception though that UK judges use a gavel. See the attached pic of Judge Grindr Rinder 🧑‍⚖️

(btw, Banksy is not American - he's from the Bristol area.)

I think it's shit. I think Banksy is overrated, and have never 'got' the hype. IDGAF who he is, and I wouldn't pay tuppence for any of his 'artwork.'

I know. I was being facetious.

Ah OK 😂 A Banksy Thanksy to you.

He doesn’t paint pretty pictures he paints ideas for you to think about.
