The mass protest of 25000 people has failed to convince the cabinet to reverse the disastrous cuts to higher education in the #Netherlands.

The #FNV, together with all #unions, has therefore decided to go on #strike nationwide. These cuts must be completely off the table!

On Wed, Feb 11 at 5pm, employees of the University of #Amsterdam are organizing an action meeting to discuss how the #strike will take shape.
