Horse meat  inspired street art hits North London

The graffiti inspired by the elusive artist Banksy has appeared on a North London street, showing a thoroughbred racehorse with the Tesco Value logo on it's Blanket.
The Supermarket has been rocked by revelations that many of it's products labeled as beef were actually Horse meat.

The one meter high mural popped up overnight on Castlehaven Road in Camden, North London it believed to be work of Los Angeles graffiti artist 'Plastic Jesus" who last month was responsible for a piece showing disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong  racing whilst connected to an IV drip.
