This Banksy artwork on a wall in Clacton-on-Sea has been removed after a complaint to the local Council. “This is the best Banksy I have never seen: a clever and succinct satire on some currents of feeling in contemporary Britain, terrified of “migrants”, menaced by otherness. Far from being by any stretch of the imagination “racist”, it is – was – a witty putdown of the drab, dour vision of Britain touted by those who would push down diversity and hold back the tide of modern human movement,” writes the Guardian’s art reviewer.
