Opposition: Hungarian government penalising protesting teachers
Change language:
The opposition LMP party said a government decree penalising teachers who have mounted protests was both legally and morally unfounded, and it demanded its withdrawal.
Teachers can be penalised for their current actions at any time until the end of the school year under the decree, the party’s deputy group leader Antal Csárdi told a press briefing on Friday, adding that the decree was contrary to the rule of law and a departure from the labor code. He said this deprivation of rights was more serious than the restriction of the right to strike, adding that the aim of the decree was to intimidate teachers who spoke out against poor teaching conditions and their hardships making a living.
Noting headline inflation of 24.5 percent in December and a 14 percent rise in the minimum wage, he said that by comparison a salary increase of just 10 percent was awarded to teachers.
The SHAMBLES created by this Orban Government who after near on 13 years have FAILED Education – its future in Hungary, through Orbans policy of NO Investment into Education.
Educators, Students and Families – the entire componentry landscape of EDUCATION in Hungary – nearing COLLAPSE through no Investment and repetitive FALSENESS of reason(S) Orban and his Government have made over years attempting to “brain wash” Educators – Education with PROPAGANDA that failed Truth & Fact.
Solidarity – as Educators, Students and Families – that we must maintain our orderly protests as we KNOW who are the AGGRESSORS in Hungary – the dictators wanting to run & control Education, like the media and the judiciary – the aggressors are the Orban led Government, that we must not “roll over” to there want of control & power.
