Banksy Does Britain!

New Banksy in the UK! New Banksy piece in the UK. This piece merges Banksy's signature stencil style with a 3d row of flags that are hung up along the wall. Not exactly sure what this piece is about. Some folks think that it might be referencing the Diamond Jubilee when the Queen celebrates 60 years as monarch this year, or others have speculated that it might be a tribute from Banksy for a friend's birthday. What do you think? ***Pics from The Lonely Villian on Flickr, and GTF off the Banksy Forums***

  3. I believe its about the store that it is on and the controversy that it had because it came out that a 7 year old indian boy was working 100 hour weeks in a sweatshop to make some of its merchandise
