I always thought it was a cat holding a marker pen! Well, it is a busy junction, that's my defense. BTW, to those who say he is some kind of menace to society - this piece was commissioned as part of Liverpool Biennial (2004) by the local bigwigs. IE, he was asked to do it.

Graffiti sucks, the Grey Ghost sucks, I'm sick of my city getting marked up and blotted out all the time. What's so bad about paper?

I wonder how long Banksy art will be desired at all. It is fairly banal. (I hate on Banksy all the time) Also, I don't think graffiti can be used as a verb.
