Campaigners in Switzerland have set a new Guinness World Record for the largest poster.

The giant poster measuring around 8,000 square-meters in size and weighing about seven tons, reads "What Would You Do if Your Income Were Taken Care of?". The poster aims at drawing attention to the issue ahead of a referendum on a universal basic income on June 5th.

It was unfurled in central Geneva as it broke the previous record for the largest poster set by Iraqi pilot Fareed Lafta.

The group behind the installation says about 200,000 euros was raised through crowd-funding for the project.
