Dozens of Lanzarote residents have demonstrated this May 1 under the slogan "March for dignity and against precariousness" and have traveled the avenue of Puerto del Carmen from the Hotel Fariones to the Arena Dorada shopping center. A concentration that has been convened by social groups, political parties and unions with the same demands, "to denounce the precarious situation that the population of Lanzarote lives at all levels and demand social and labor improvements for the workers of the island."
