Believe me he doesn't care! That's what he's all about.

As others have said, make a poster yourself or pipe down.

A great artist who attracts great respect and the odd £80 is not going to tarnish that whatever you think.

[Eton Groover]

Billy Childish is fucking ace and anyone who thinks any different is a soulless, tasteless, t**t.

 Can you tell us what Childish's point is exactly?

apart from Childish being bigoted himself.

I assume Childish is another one of those left wing champagne socialists who is happy to provoke and insult whilst at the same time not backing up with facts anything.

It's all me me me these days.

is Childish a Labour supporter?

Limited editions £30 or £113 for a signed one.

To get a political point of view out and seen, wouldn't it have been better as a free download or a cheap £5 poster? 

Totally agree, not sure how you can call it a political statement for £113.
these guys want all the protesting of their youth and heyday, but also need their 4 bedroom houses in hampstead. Power to the people and all that.

sorry i didn't catch that, can you remove your tongue from his áss so we can understand clearly what you are saying ?

I'm sure you guys are more qualified than billy to choose what he should have done, what kind of paper to use, what collage to do, which message to write.. real geniuses.

[Deleted]

I am all for freedom of expression.

Childish has the right to express himself this way.

better out than in and all that.

I was hoping you could tell us what point Childish is making for you.

 I'm neither left nor right wing.

all parties manipulate and lie to people and when voting time cmes along all parties leaders should be strapped to a lie detector.

 I think there is potential in Childish type collages.

 One could do similar insulting historical and religious figures etc.

Like, Oi Nero you f***ing fiddler you.

Or, Oi Henry 8, you fookin muderer you muppet with your big Boleyns.

True we could all do the same but Childish is who he is and has earned respect in many areas, stuckism etc. If it winds people up so much, he has achieved what he set out to do, then move away but that is the whole point of any controversial figure in history. Whether you agree with him or not he is an important figure in the British art world. He himself has created this debate which is what it is all about. The fact that he has never been one to stick by the rules. I think many an artist would like to have the type of activity he has had as an artist. Artists and art lovers should have the freedom of speech and bravery to say what They feel, shame that it appears a few on this forum begrudge that. He's not going to afford any decent champagne by selling any of these and so left wing Champagne drinking socialist is a little rich when most of us on here are just fence sitting middle class (me included!)

[sugar72]

By the way, im getting off the fence now and going to have a glass of champers with my mate billy!

Peace!

 I just see it that it is easy to attack and claim one is a victim at the same time.

  I'm curious as to why exactly Trump is a c**nt for Childish?

The way I see it is if someone said the same of Corbyn, the same way that Childish says it of Trump and May with no explantion. They would be seen as far right.

 Regarding Champagne socialist, I was not refrring to any money Childish would earn from selling these prints.


 Plus we all know that if an unknown artist had made the same statement in Collage form at the same time or before Childish's rant. They would be ignored because Childish appeals to flippers and investors.

[sugar72]

Don't get me wrong I understand. I do love a good debate though its what this should all be about, espevially art!

[yorkie]

If it speaks to someone or some people then that's a good thing.

It's angry and a statement - not something I would put on a wall in my house but it doesn't offend me and I like diversity so...... it's freedom to express and I like that!

Nice!

Yorkie

[sugar72]

Yorkie is far more succinct and eloquent than me!

[sugar72]

The thing is, I'm more likely to buy this than that shite Brainwash new print!!

[Agent Provocateur]

Safely arrived, crumpled and folded badly, chucked in the garden for a quick photo… just deciding whether to pin it to the wall, but worried that might add value to it. Thanks again Daniel Silk for the heads up.

The left have a lot of agression in them I noticed. Plus left wing politics and protestors can be very dishonest and team up with violent people. Take advantage of anything and merge with genuine protestors and issues in order to infiltrate their marxist agenda.

Nothing wrong with Childish poster making himself look immature. I'm sure if someone made an anti Corbyn poster paste up calling Corbyn Lenins afterbirth or similar. The forum would erupt in mass PM's to Silkie, to get the offensive anti Corbyn and person who made it sent to the Gulag.

I think that's called The Daily Mail... most days of the week.

Or The Sun:

C'mon now. Huge generalisation. I'm left wing but detest violence. The vast majority do I expect.
I wouldn't lump the right wing people on here in with the bnp, NF, etc.
I wouldn't expect you to so either so far as left wing people are concerned.

They instead just pay people to sort issues out

Daily mail anyone?
