Subvert Shenanigans

Under the cover of darkness on Sept 25th a subverted billboard in Norwich caused quite a stir. (See text on front cover). The poster was almost complete when the ‘proportionate response’ from Norwich police arrived: 5 cars (2 unmarked and carrying plain-clothed Special Branch). Not only were these cops willing to run, they were actually quite fast. Unfortunately, two people were arrested. After some intimidation and a night in the cells both were released without charge.
