New Banksy in Hull, by moron on Jan 28, 2018 23:29:31 GMT 1, It's a boy playing medeival knights in armour, thats all. Banksy just decided to place the boy on a suitable drawbridge and found one in Hull.
No message and no cryptic reason for choosing Hull apart from the bridge being there.

New Banksy in Hull, by darren6 on Jan 29, 2018 0:15:04 GMT 1, That's street art for you... some people hate Banksy. I personally love his work, but street art is about defacing walls and other arts. I don't think Banksy would be too bothered about this, it's part of the game. Just a HUGE shame as I sure it would of helped boost the area.

Good job, that guy. Don't understand why you'd buff it even if you don't like it. Kinda understood the King Robbo followers buffing episode. Thought that had run its course though If you don't like it, ignore it, why spoil it for those that do like that. |

Tory Councillor John Abbott says the suspected Banksy artwork that's appeared on Hull's Scott Street bridge should be scrubbed off. He's told BBC Radio Humberside he's not a fan of Banksy. The BBC's Arts Correspondent Will Gompertz thinks it should be left alone.

New Banksy in Hull, by lee3 on Jan 29, 2018 22:55:30 GMT 1, White spirit is paint remover/turpentine. I can only speculate that the reason the Banksy does not come off with it is that perhaps he sprayed an acrylic clear coat protective layer over the piece when finished.
