According to the preliminary data of the Ministry of Human Resources, less than a fifth of the teachers employed in schools nationwide took part in today's strike.
It is regrettable that the trade unions organized the strike despite the fact that the legal conditions for it did not exist, Emmi wrote in a statement sent to Magyar Hírlap.
Although the court's first-instance decision was made on January 28, the decision was not yet legally binding, so today's teachers' strike became illegal. The trade unions turned to the court on December 21 – in parallel with the negotiations with the government – but they were unable to present a formal and content-appropriate request, so due to the necessary gaps, the court only made a first-instance, non-binding decision on January 28. The Strike TV. Based on Section 4 (3), a strike can only be held if the court has made a final decision on it, but this situation has not yet existed.
According to the paper, it is clear that it is a campaign action timed for the parliamentary election campaign.
First of all, the strike call of the Teachers' Union, which is on the verge of representativeness, and the Democratic Union of Teachers, which is not even close to representativeness, is distributed by the "civil organization" called Parent Voice, which is oppositional in every way and belongs to the Soros network. In addition to signing the petition, parents were urged not to take their children to school during the work stoppage.
However, their call did not include specific union demands, but the usual left-wing slogans about the "neglected state of public education", "the destruction of recent years" and "tragic conditions", claiming that "the majority of workers in the sector have daily problems of livelihood and housing". , and "there are no new entrants to the field" - while teacher training was the fourth most popular in last year's admissions, with more than thirteen thousand applicants.
It is no coincidence that in the "guidelines" sent to teachers by the trade unions, it was stated that those participating in the strike should wear blue ribbons and make banners - the blue ribbon is currently the trademark of the left-wing prime ministerial candidate, Péter Márki-Zay, and his followers.
