Boston Town Area Committee will receive a verbal update on the work of the group’s TAC Operatives on Thursday.They include an image of Hitler in Nazi imagery with phrases including “Achtung Juden ”.Homophobic writing intimated LGBTQ communities should get in the bin. | Image: Boston Borough Council Images also show general tags, sexual words and pictures along with what appears to be the logo of a Polish football supporters club – Blue England.Ward councillor Neill John Hastie hit out at the criminal acts.“I’m digusted that there are still people in the town that think its ok.”He said that during a previous BTAC site visit to the area, he had seen a “lovely pirate picture on a park fence which improved the look and feel of the park”.
He also requested that the committee look into installing boards in central park specifically, so street artists can display their work with Boston Borough Council’s permission. He said it would be to the benefit of Boston. Neighbouring Spalding recently approved a similar scheme outside the Castle Sports Complex.
