Street art in Jamaica Street, with the headquarters of the People's Republic of Stokes Croft in beyond. The PRSC was founded in 2007 as a community group aiming to preserve the unique character of what was a run down area just north of the commercial centre of Bristol, promoting street art and other cultural media, as well as direct and other political action. This particular work on hoardings in front of a vacant site, what the PRSC describe as their outdoor gallery, was created in the run up to the June 2017 general election, with the colours of the three main opposition parties - red for Labour, yellow for the Liberal Democrats and green for the Greens, giving a clear political message.
