Standby with the nets! He won't be able to resist this English Local Council story

For those who can't be bothered clicking links

A £3,000 blank wall built for teenage graffiti artists by a council was painted by a disgruntled taxpayer with the slogan: "I paid my tax and all I got was this lousy wall".
