Oppose British Political Policing

Extramural ActivityLeave a comment

A 32-County Sovereignty Movement (web) tarp reading “Oppose British political policing” has been added below and partly on top of some lettering reading “RIC – RUC – PSNI”, “RUC -> Collusion covered up by PSNI” on a whitewashed panel that sat empty for weeks. It would seem that the original plans for this piece did not materialise and the tarp is a substitute.

This is a second repainting of the King Billy mural in Donegall Pass. The note in the corner says that this and the 2002 repainting (which added the painting of the Lindsay Street arch) were by “MW”, and the original mural painted in 1989 by “H. Gibson”.
