This weird attempt to try and smear Banksy only highlights that the MoJ spent an absolute fortune washing a bit of paint off a wall from an artist much loved by most people.

@Akki@toot.lgbt @TheBreadmonkey@beige.party IDK, the current British government sure seems fascist to me as an American dissident.

If an organisation spends £85k to remove approx 2msq of paint from a stone building, people should be asking serious questions of their competence.

If that organisation is the MoJ, people should also ask if the organisation understands the intent of habeas corpus.

Part of the problem is confusing Jewish folk with Zionists. Most religious Jews are anti-Zionists, the government in Israel by and large are not religious and are Zionists. Outside of that you don't have to be jewish to be a Zionist.
Zionism is a movement of colonial land grabbing and extermination of the indigenous

@TheBreadmonkey So planting a food chain by his work, justifies breathtaking art?..

@TheBreadmonkey I now understand why the people who don't like him feel that way. What a senseless waste of everyone's time. I'm quite sure that if I drew No Love Deep Web all over public buildings, no less a court of law, the authorities would quite rightly have some questions for me.

@TheBreadmonkey Says more about the efficiency of public spending than anything else, tbh.

@TheBreadmonkey

Banksy's art is free.

Real title: Bristol spends nearly £150k of taxpayer money to destroy artwork without cause.

@TheBreadmonkey I'm not sure this was taken down yet. Took the photo a few weeks ago.

"Bureaucracy costs taxpayers nearly £150K removing Banksy's art"

Fixed it.

[cstamp@mastodon.social]

@TheBreadmonkey I think the crime was the £150k. It's like the US's $15 million pool liner fiasco.

@TheBreadmonkey If many tourists come to see Banksy's art then by removing the art, the government not only wasted money but forfeited money that tourists would have spent to come see it.
