“Several demonstrations have taken place on Sunday in the main tourist areas of the Canary Islands to protest against the “excesses” of tourism, overcrowding, the housing market crisis and what they consider to be the inaction of the Canary Islands Government. The protests have brought together some 6,500 people in Playa de Las Américas, in the south of Tenerife, and another 1,500 in Maspalomas, in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, as well as hundreds of demonstrators in Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and La Palma, according to data from the Government Delegation in the Canary Islands. According to the organisers, between 26,000 and 31,200 people attended the demonstration called in Tenerife.”
