Iconic Banksy image painted over


London transport workers have painted over an iconic mural by "guerrilla artist" Banksy estimated to be worth more than £300,000
.
The image depicted a scene from Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, with Samuel L Jackson and John Travolta clutching bananas instead of guns. It had become one of the most famous graffiti paintings by the artist.

Transport for London said a tough line had to be taken on graffiti because it created an atmosphere of social decay.
