Losing Her Head Over Art?

Should a London man be jailed for decapitating a statue of Margaret Thatcher? He claims the act was art. “The prosecution will attempt to convince you that my actions amount to criminal damage whereas my defence will centre around artistic expression and my right to interact with this broken world. We can ill afford to ever lose our sense of humour. I was left with no choice other than to do this act of satirical humour.”
