There are many rumours about this inflateable boat at Glastonbury yesterday. Many people and media say it was a Banksy stunt. Also the "Terminal 1 Exhibition" with many artists was announced. The look and feel, as well as the artist selection give me a lot of Banksy (curation) vibes - even though both is not confirmed by Banksy (yet?).

What do you think?

Do you agree with this?

Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden has branded Banksy's Glastonbury stunt "pretty sad" and "not something for joking about".

Tory scum James "cleverly" was just on the news accusing Banksy of making fun of people dying.

They really are all obtuse as utter fuck arent they. Vile despicable scum tories.

Gaslighting scumbags, they can have all the opinions they want, as unless there are millions of secret Tories, they won't be running the country by the weekend.

Why would he think it was a joke?

As usual, completely out of context and totally ignoring the whole 'Terminal 1' installation - f**king assholes, the lot of them !!! 💨

The fact that he does, speaks volumes about him and his party.

Labour wisely keeping quiet, as their approach to the 'problem' is exactly the same.

At fucking last! The way its going, they may get a few seats in the corridor and be written out of UK politics.

When you think about it, totally relevant as part of the tax income generated from this event and all the side sales will presumably go for paying the French.

Just like Banksy's artworks, cost of Touquet agreement got a twentyfold price increase, from 12M GBP in 2012 to projected 209M GBP in 2024-2025.... if not more, it seems UK spent about 1.2M GBP per day. And reading the French authority performance report is interesting, UK spend more and more while French authority performance rate hasn't changed in 10 years

It may sound like a scam but UK is fine paying huge sum of money for new infrastructures, offices, etc. in France.

Interesting question indeed. He is of course right to say that human trafficking is not something to joke about. But now he seems to be saying that Banksy's action is a joke. Which is a pretty odd frame because it isn't a joke at all. It was meant (I hope) to create awareness and shed yet again another light on human rights.

Now imagine if it had read, good stunt by Banksy to draw attention to the fact that human trafficking is something to be taken very seriously. Maybe something for Labour to frame the action that way?

I think you can be more than hopeful it was to bring attention. Hes been paying for a boat to rescue people out the Med for years.

not to worry, I've known this for years.

Always love seeing what Banksy comes up with to bring attention to international issues! It's what he does and it seems he will continue to consider other forms of art and activism in order to do so. I think it's fascinating these last few pieces, between the stop sign drones, pollarded tree backsplash, even the Palestine hotel from years back, and now this inflatable boat piece, all really unique non-traditional approaches for an artist to take and I think it's inspiring to see and the reactions and attention alone these works have realized are not for nothing

Makes me sick how everything gets twisted to suit someone's own agenda !
Migrants - Gaza - Ukraine: All the people protesting on the streets week after week are just a nuisance to those politicians representing us and, at best, simply get ignored... 😎

At least ALL at Glastonbury understood !!! 👍 ✌

Well all those clips look really balanced. I won't be watching any of them. Why even share them?!

The Staff Member is currently pumping JBoy, Mason Storm and MBW. Guess the Quality Control department have been let go.
