I could confirm from various sources that the strike came about after the government offered the Malta Union of Teachers a maximum of 2% increase in their salaries and refused to negotiate this figure.
Even if 2% was a starting figure (which wasn’t) – it is incredibly offensive given the current salary rates. Clifton Grima and Robert Abela have gone out of their minds. This is supposed to be a party of “socialists”.
