Barry Island is to sue Banksy for stealing their ‘Dismaland’ theme park idea.

Artist Banksy has recently hit the headlines for staging a derelict and substandard theme park in Weston-Super-Mare. But Barry Island bosses have contacted their solicitors after they claim that Banksy got the idea from them.

Spokesman Dai ‘The Wrench’ Jones told WalesOnCraic:

“This guy turns up, sticks a few shitty amusements in his park and they all come flocking. Why’s that? We’ve been doing that for over 50 years and we never get a mention on the telly. I spoke to my mate last night. His mate knows a guy who knows a solicitor so we’re going to go around his house on Tuesday to talk about it. I’m not sure how I’m going to get there as he lives out in the sticks. Any chance of a lift?”

The man who looks after the Hook-a-Duck stall added:

“It’s £2 a go mate. No. £2. You can pick any prize you want. Yeah. £2. Want a go? Why not? It’s only £2.”
