On February 2 members of the ZSP in Warsaw protested, together with students, teachers and parents, at the session of the City Council about the closure of schools. The meeting was interrupted at various times and as a result of the protests, the Council was forced to stay all night, eventually passing the vote only at 3AM.

It is clear that such protests will not change the votes in the Council since it has an absolute majority of neoliberals who make decisions in advance and will make decisions behind closed doors is necessary. Only a radicalization of the protests and more concrete action will have any impact so the ZSP is calling for this. More protests are scheduled for February 13 and 16. The Education Workers Union, which had been inactive for a while, has been reactivated and hopes to organize some public assembly on the issue.
