Fitzrovia’s Banksy mural removal all set for a show down

As previously mentioned Westminster council has ordered the removal of Banksy's mural - 'One Nation Under CCTV' on the wall of a residential building in Newman Street, W1. However, an argument has broken out over who actually owns the wall and who has the right to remove the work.
Property investment firm Searchgrade, which owns the block of flats on which the mural is housed also claims that it owns the wall. It has responded to the Westminster removal order with an application to retain the mural.
However, during a recent meeting at Westminster City Hall to discuss the issue, the Royal Mail came forward to claim it was the true owner of said wall.
Now Westminster council has launched an investigation to discover who is the rightful owner of the wall on which the mural is sprayed, although it still insists the mural must go. A spokesman for Searchgrade said that 'There is no doubt we own the wall. It's very disappointing. We didn't ask Banksy to pick our wall and we don't think we should have to pay for its removal. Actually we liked the piece and so did our tenants. We don't plan on selling it.'
