A man who painted a St George’s cross on his local roundabout is furious with the street artist Banksy, demanding police arrest the artist for defacing public property.

Banksy’s latest mural depicting a judge and a protestor holding a blood-spattered sign has been removed from the listed Queen’s Building in London, with many patriots believing the street artist should rot in prison for his actions.

“You can’t just go around painting things on public property,” said a seething Derek Williams.

“It’s fine if you want to express your views and opinions, but don’t go around painting stuff on the Queen’s buildings just to try and make a political point. It’s so childish and immature. I’m actually a bit embarrassed for the guy.

However, Williams had a different opinion about painting flags.

“Obviously painting flags on roundabouts is completely different. I’m showing a deep and undying love for my country, whereas Banksy is just some woke Art Attack wannabe. Besides, it can’t be vandalism if it’s in the name of patriotism. 

“Hopefully he gets ten years in prison for this heinous crime. It serves him right for sticking up for people’s right to protest.

“I’m all for free speech, but only if it’s something I’m interested in.”
