Following a five week-run in Weston-super-Mare, material from Banksy's 'bemusement park,' Dismaland has been used to create shelters for refugees in the camp in Calais.

Banksy has now published a selection of photographs from the camp, and the donated materials used, on his Dismaland website which includes comments from a Kurdish refugee interviewed about why they want to come to the UK.
