Banksy painting forbidden by Tony Blair's laws

Banksy Street Art, placards and banners, from the Brian Haw peace campaign in Parliament Square, including this fine original painting 'Petrol Head' donated by the street artist Banksy to the Brian Haw protest. These displayed messages are regarded as so dangerous to national security, that 50 police officers removed them in a 2.25am stealth raid on the 23rd of May 06, under Tony Blair Government's, Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005. The controversial SOCPA restricts the right to demonstrate within an exclusion zone of up to one kilometre from any point in Parliament Square with out police permission, an area covering key government institutions, protecting them from spontaneous public criticism.
