Vandal Update

A few lush new Banksy's have sprung up around London the last couple of weeks... most notably this by the Old Street roundabout, where his Pulp Fiction pictures used to be. It's a bit of a beauty IMO, and seems to be some kind of comment on these youth shootings that have been going on recently. As he says on his site... "How do we solve the crisis of youth crime? How do we get these kids to kill the right people"

This particular spot has been pretty much claimed by Banksy over the years. You can see an interesting pictorial history here.

The new one:

I think I posted up a picture of this a couple of weeks ago...

Along with a welcome return of the Rats... also in West London.





It's miraculous that he's still getting away with doing this without anyone managing to suss who he is. Long may it continue....
