Hide AdA spokesman said: “We felt that it was necessary and proportionate to cover the four letter expletive with a turbo facepalm, but left the word underneath uncensored and for all to see.
"We have purposely done this to evidence the size and scale of the graffiti 'artists' buffoonery. I don't think Banksy will lose any sleep over this masterpiece.
“Enjoy your weekend folks, yours sincerely, The Polce.”
Members of the public also mocked the vandals, with one writing: “Sorry I don't know what "polce" is. I don't speak moron...”
Another, referencing the 1993 song Sound of Da Police by US rapper KRS-One said: “Whoop whoop, that's the sound of the polce?”
