New Banksy - UK Election Souvenir Special, by Happy Shopper on Jun 5, 2017 23:38:46 GMT 1, Why not make these available via a POW lottery system and charge each lucky recipient ยฃ1k and give all the proceeds to charities of Banksy's choosing.
I'd rather a new print than a rehashed old one anyway!

No face to save here. I personally couldn't give a fuck. I don't have the disposable income for a Banksy and wouldn't give up my democratic vote for one. Oh and yes you may say I'm a Tory but ironically i havent voted for 28 years and you know why, coz they're all full ofs**t.... Peace

Would be amusing if some people actually do photograph their ballot and email Banksy.co.uk a photo anyway.

It appears that the print giveaway will not go ahead. Not sure what you don't understand about that.
Your glib delight is childish.
It would be good to see some respect for artists that work hard, put in the years, and give great pleasure to many people. Good night.

Assuming his anonymity is above all paramount......the risk of this becoming public knowledge by way of a court case - very much 'I'll conceived'.
Try as Mr. B may, there's no escaping the powers that be, if they really want their pound of flesh from him/them ๐ค

If he wants to do something useful - release 10,000 copies of the print at $250 a pop with COAs and donate half the money to victims of the recent attacks.
And the other half on educating the fuckwits that are leaning towards following the fuckwits that did the attacks.
Whichever fuckwits get elected Thursday won't change politics one bit.

Banksy election print-for-vote offer investigated by police
An offer of a free Banksy print to people who vote against the Conservatives is being investigated by police.
Avon and Somerset Police has received a number of complaints over the secretive street artist's offer.
Applicants from six Bristol constituencies have to send him a ballot paper photo showing a vote against the Tories to get the print.
Police said anyone taking part in the offer could also be prosecuted.
A police spokesman said: "We've received a number of complaints about an offer of a free Banksy print to people living in six Bristol constituencies in exchange for them voting in a certain way in the forthcoming election and we can confirm we're investigating the offer.
"It is a criminal offence under the Representation of the People Act 1983 for any voter to accept or agree to accept a gift or similar in return for voting or refraining from voting.
"Any person participating in an offer to receive a gift is at risk of being prosecuted."
'Souvenir piece'
The offer has been made to voters in the Bristol North West, Bristol West, North Somerset, Thornbury, Kingswood and Filton constituencies in and around Banksy's home city.
The artist wrote on his website: "Simply send in a photo of your ballot paper from polling day showing you voted against the Conservative candidate and this complimentary gift will be mailed to you."
The artwork, which he has also put on his Instagram page, reprises his well-known "girl with a balloon" motif, but with a Union Jack in the balloon.
It will be released on 9 June, Banksy said on his website.
A disclaimer states the print was "a souvenir piece" which was not in any way intended to influence voters but was for "amusement purposes only".

I agree. i guess we need people to program the machines? I find it all rather depressing, but them again, i suppose its been happening from the Industrial revolution. progress eh
