Possible Banksy work near GCHQ targets government surveillance


Mysterious street artist Banksy appears to have unveiled his latest creation – targeting the issue of government surveillance.

The artwork shows three 1950s-style agents, wearing brown trenchcoats and trilby hats, using devices to tap into conversations at a telephone box.

It appeared overnight on a street in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, just a few miles from GCHQ, the base of the UK's surveillance network.
