By Ellie Pipe  Monday Sep 4, 2017

A mass anti-austerity uprising on September 9 is being promoted in a typically Bristol fashion.

Bold street art has appeared in key positions across the city, including the Bearpit and alongside the M32.

New graffiti has appeared at the side of the M32

Designed by the People’s Republic of Stokes Croft arts collective and painted by graffiti artists Object and Deamz, the pieces call on people turn out and fight against austerity.
