Hostile graffiti reading “OHMYCON VARIANT” and “KILL BORIS?” has been spray painted on the underpass of the A180 in North Lincolnshire.

The “KILL BORIS?” graffiti appears to be targeted at Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is currently under increased scrutiny as the Metropolitan Police open an investigation into a number of events at Downing Street and Whitehall in relation to potential breaches of COVID regulations.

A cyclist, who wished to remain anonymous, told The Lincolnite that he found the unsightly graffiti on the underpass on Middlegate Lane near Melton Ross January 20.

He said: “I get people do graffiti and air their views, but a statement like kill Boris is a bit too out there isn’t it, it’s harsh and not exactly what you want your kids seeing as you drive past it.”

A spokesperson for North Lincolnshire Council told The Lincolnite: “We are aware of the graffiti and it will be removed.”
