Re: Pembrokeshire hyas been struck by a notorious mystery graffiti artist known for using obscene images to highlight the blight of potholes.
A bright yellow spray painted penis has been spotted scrawled over a pothole near Crundale, west Wales.
The piece of graffiti was potentially inspired by a protest artist known as Wanksy, who began spray painting penises onto potholes around Greater Manchester in 2015 and gained a viral following.
This treatment has since become the hallmark of a UK-wide phenomenon where residents take pothole management into their own hands.
Wanksies have arisen to protest potholes in Cambridgeshire and Essex in the last few years, among other places.
A motorist who did not wish to be named spotted the piece of graffiti.
"I was shocked and appalled when I saw it, that sort of thing really rubs me up the wrong way," said the motorist.
"I was just driving home for lunch. I had to pull off the road when I noticed it," they added.
"Obviously potholes are a pain, but is this the way to highlight them? I don't think so: someone needs a stiff talking to!" « less
