BBC News writes:

Ken Aylmer, 52, has applied for retrospective planning permission for the colourful design on his property in Clifton, Bristol.

The family painted it in October to support both the NHS and LGBTQ+ rights.

It has attracted 100 messages of support and 15 objections from people who said it might look out of place.

Some residents and people who objected to the application said the painting and the colours were “visually incongruous within the context of the Georgian terrace”.…

A date has not been set for when the planning application will be decided.
