How's the ground bedding down there? Soft? Cutting up already? Is it a clear mudbath on the cards. Cheers in advance Rogue.

I posed the question yesterday "what do people think the message of the image is?" It obviously plays on the paedo theme for jarring effect, but what is he trying to say?

Nah nothing to do with paedophiles in my opinion. It's probably about the new proposed stop and search laws, and the fact under the new terrorism threats everyones a suspect.
In fact I'm deleting my earlier suggestion it's just wrong.

I wasn't suggesting that the image actually has anything to do with paedophiles - in fact I very much doubt it. Though, given the comments on this thread the imagery obviously plays on this theme subconciously. Whether this is an intentional mechanism employed by the artist, who knows.
It's definitely a thought-provoking piece of graf. 24hrs after first seeing the pics, I'm still not sure what he's trying to say.

Banksy at Glastonbury, by finsburyparkranger on Jun 18, 2007 20:00:03 GMT 1, This is simply Banksy standing up for the rights of the festival going community. For years the police have been given special licenses to search people contrary to normal rules that request an element of suspicion. At Glastonbury in particular they get to set up road blocks on the motorway and siphon traffic in to side lanes and then use the threat of dogs and strip vans to find a bag of weed and secure our DNA forever. Once at the green gathering everyone was so incensed at the police bullying at the entrance that hundreds of people acted a naked protest and went and frisked the coppers back. The truth is that if the police used their bully boy tactics at the proms they would no doubt find allot of cocaine and if they looked harder they would find shed loads of white collar crime in the form of insider dealing and tax fraud to name but a few. Banksy here is showing his root's and standing up for a community that has always been victimised..... This is so f**king refreshing to see the man is back !

I would like to take the credit for the name kiddie frisk but that is what the guys at the wonderful workshop called it ;D ;D
But I think its quite apt.....the idea that the powers that be can sort of do whatever they want no matter how ridiculous it may seem.
It also uses two of Banksy's favourite images
child - usually linked to loss of innocence
police - as a figure of authority or government
Imo

Banksy at Glastonbury, by dave313perry on Jun 18, 2007 20:24:49 GMT 1, I cant help thinking this image is not more literal than you would like to think, especially with all the uncoverings of the sickening underworld of staged acts of child torture and abuse thats been splashed all over the TV today.. utterly sickening!
Also the abuse of power and corruption of the powers that be?
The usual lack of innosense often portrayed in banksy's stencils, i see this image as an amalgamation of banksy's best pices rolled into one, collective messages of rude copper, girl with balloon, i fought the law etc etc, i personally can see a link with all these.
I can see why people prefer to think of this image as something far more and maybe im being a little unknowledgable as im no art critic but seems pretty blatant to me! maybe im wrong! probably never know!!
