Amazing fragile! How come u find all this info 1st?

Def Banksy... comment on the moca show and his critics?
or a shot at MBW with the rat hand print, rather than his thumb print.

[eduarandres]

amazing as always!

Nice find Fragile.

Its one of his old quotes, but I guess that means nothing

EDIT: The rat has no feet so im guessing its real

and I think the actual quote is:

'if graffiti changed anything, it would be made illegal'

Pretty cool

Thats a really nice piece. Could he be pointing out how graffiti has changed everything for him?

And maybe he can now come back to Brighton and give us something to replace the kissing coppers we got robbed of!!

Not sure he does requests though :-)

Looks good!, great Rat!.

As the spray paint on the walls says "If voting changed anything it would be illegal".. 1.55 in.

I don't think Banksy would take a shot at MBW. For one they are friends, second it would be like Michael Jordan dunking on a toddler. No point.

Agree, it's a paraphrase of an Emma Goldman quote about politics..probably related to the AV nonsense. She was a famous activist that Banksy's no doubt aware of.

There not friends.... MBW is a joke, between Banksy and Shep.... this is a reference to it!
Read the headline!

Since you quoted me, I am guessing the "salivating" jibe is directed at me.
If so, grow up. What part of what I posted amounts to "salivating"?
Fact.

Could also be a dig at the council. Looks like the wall could do with a fresh coat of paint

Why do you always get the wrong end of the stick.

Was not aimed at anyone in particular, just pulled a quote.

[gwenie]

I likey that rat a lot!

[LunchSpecial]

not a jab at MBW, don't think the man would bother himself...maybe more like a reference of being caught red handed? Invader maybe? pure speculation...

[jeezuzjonessnr]

nice....
