Photos: thousands march against austerity
Despite getting drenched by relentless downpours, thousands of Bristolians marched against austerity last Saturday in a powerful display of opposition to government. Photographer Norberto Fernandez Soriano captured some of the action.
The demonstration had been called by mayor Marvin Rees and was backed by the Bristol Labour Party, Green party and over 30 organisations, including trade unions and community groups. The protest came three days ahead of a coalition of ten major regional UK cities known as the Core Cities delivering a green paper to parliament calling for investment in cities.
