Blur Mural on BBC, by Grafter on Sept 5, 2009 9:59:36 GMT 1, Noticed this had been done the other day...
They made a piss poor job of it as well. They made an attempt to paint around the figures and have left what can only be described as a complete mess.
I'm pretty sure the Hackney Buff Truck are subis and they must be on piece work 'cos they preety much don't give a s**t about preserving pieces that actually add to their surroundings and are actually revered by the local residents, as this one was.
It wasn't long ago that they also "accidently" buffed a Happy Choppers piece only 2 streets away.

Makes it even worse....... Why would you paint the top and bottom half that had nothing on it 1st without touching the area they were supposed to be removing.....?
These idiots can't even do the job they are employed to do......

Blur Mural on BBC, by Sundowner on Sept 5, 2009 10:52:31 GMT 1, There was a crowd of about 30 people on Church Street all shouting at them to stop (including my missus)........I think I'd have just pushed them off their ladders!

Blur Mural on BBC, by idris on Sept 6, 2009 11:13:14 GMT 1, The workmen laughed as they ignored the pleas from people to not cover it up - now the council admit it was a 'mistake'!
The Banksy is on a private wall, the owners wanted the piece up for people too see & had visits from people all over the world -
Shame the council is run by a bunch of mo-moes :-(
