A local council has removed a mural by British artist Banksy following a complaint it was racist. The depiction on a wall in the seaside town of Clacton in south-east England showed a group of pigeons holding signs stating migrants not welcome and go back to Africa directed at a small green bird. Tendring District Council said it received a complaint that the artwork was racist and offensive and had removed it, unaware that it was thought to be by Banksy. What do you think of the artwork? Is it clearly satire or is it offensive? Does the profile of an artist matter when judging artwork?
