Up to 10,000 people who live in Tenerife are expected to join a mass protest on Saturday, claiming the Canary Islands are suffering from over-tourism. The year-round holiday hotspot has a population of just under a million, but six million people visit the island every year. Locals are taking part in a wave of protests and hunger strikes claiming the Canaries can no longer support so many tourists - with water shortages reported and some locals forced to live in their cars because they can no longer afford property.
British expat and protest organiser Brian Harrison joins GMB to discuss the impact of over-tourism and what he hopes to see as a result of the protests.
