"Very well. So you stand revealed at last. You are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another." - V, V For Vendetta.

I'm at least half convinced Banksy had that speech in mind when he did this, too. :)

It says in the Evening Standard today that the scales got nicked within hours of it being put there. The article celebrated the irony of part of a statue saying "Trust no-one" being stolen but hardly mentioned that it represented justice being sold down the river to the nearest mob. Possibly because it's printed in the same building as the Daily Mail.
