A thirty foot mural of a rat holding a machine gun painted by legendary graffiti artist Banksy will be painted over according to this article on The Telegraph. The piece, which is painted on the outside of a pub in Liverpool, is one of the artist’s largest. The pub’s new owner, a property developer named Billy Palmer, admits that he isn’t a fan of modern art.

Although it’s sad to see his work covered up, the simple fact remains that Palmer owns the property. It’s up to him.
