Torna graffito pro-IRA a Strabane

Il graffito dell’IRA che aveva provocato tumulti online è stato nuovamente disegnato su un edificio a Strabane

Lo slogan era stato disegnato sulla sottostazione dell’elettricità di Ballycolman, ma presto era stato trasformato in “Join the library” (Entra in biblioteca) e quell’immagine era stata condivisa da migliaia di persone su Twitter.

Brian McGilloway, soprannominato Strabanksy, aveva detto di sentirsi costretto alla modifica dopo aver riscontrato “un apostrofo non necessario”.

Lo Strabane Chronicle ha confermato che il graffito “Join the IRA” (Entra nell’IRA) è stato rifatto – questa volta senza l’apostrofo e in un modo per cui sarà difficile ripristinare la scritta “library”.

Northern Ireland Electricity, proprietaria dell’immobile, ha spiegato che intende rimuovere qualsiasi forma di graffito delle stazioni di scambio dell’energia elettrica.

IRA graffiti returns in Strabane

The IRA graffiti which caused an online stir after it was repainted to promote a local library has returned on a building in Strabane.

The slogan was daubed on Ballycolman electricity sub-station, but was soon changed to say ‘Join the library’ and an image of the reworking was shared by thousands on Twitter.

The man responsible, or Strabanksy as he has been nicknamed, said he was compelled to change it after spotting an “unnecessary apostrophe”.

The Strabane Chronicle has confirmed that the ‘Join the IRA’ graffiti has returned after it was painted over last week – this time without the redundant punctuation and painted in a way that would make the ‘library’ alteration difficult.

Northern Ireland Electricity, which owns the building, has reiterated its policy to remove all forms of graffiti from sub-stations.
