Being one of the most famous graffiti paintings by Banksy showing a scene from the movie Pulp Fiction it was spray-painted on the side of an electricity substation around five years ago.
Transport for London, whose workers white-washed the mural near the Old Street tube was unapologetic, saying its policy was to remove all graffiti that created an atmosphere of "neglect and social decay".So what’s left to say?! Everybody’s taste in art is different?
"We recognise that there are those who view Banksy's work as legitimate art, but sadly our graffiti removal teams are staffed by professional cleaners not professional art critics," it said in a statement.
