Seriously, though, I think you have probably found the unofficial anthem of PeeFans 🙂 Edited May 9, 2021 by Kupar 2 1 Link to post
Alfresco 11,631 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 This is the bridge that @Kupar mentioned above: It seems that it has an following as an iconic piece of graffiti which is decades old and has created quite a soft spot for many people. According to this page, the slogan was painted over with a HELCH slogan in 2018 and people were complaining and campaigning to get it restored back to give peas a chance again. Strange when it was defacing the bridge in the first place and now people have complained that the defacing was defaced. There is even a Change.Org page, here to "give peas a second chance". This is to raise a campaign to the government to have the original restored. According to that page, the original text was not a mis-spelling of "Give Peace A Chance". The page says: "'PEAS' is the tag of a London graffiti artist and his tag can been seen in many other locations, particularly on bridges. The additional text changing the graffiti to read 'GIVE PEAS A CHANCE' is thought to refer to his continual arrests. The common misinterpretation of the inscription makes bridge a interesting landmark to users of the M25." If you look closely, you can see that the 'Give' and 'A Chance' words are not in the same lettering as 'Peas' More recently, it has apparently been replaced by an NHS Recognition: Interestingly, the style of the lettering in all three slogans is very similar, so it is possible that the same person may be responsible for all three. Whoever it was, they must be pretty ballsy to be on the side of a railway bridge above a major motorway painting. That must have taken some significant time to lay out and paint as it isn't just a scrawl, but consistently formed and well proportioned letters. None of the above indicates my approval of such acts - just comments on what has occurred. 1 1 Link to post
