The scattered demonstrations around the educational institutions continues.

Anne Dalum, who is spokesman for the humanities students, said in a statement: "We have decided to close the faculty down to make it quite clear that we do not accept SU-cuts of any kind in connection with the tax reform, despite many protests, the proposal is not yet on the table, and we have therefore decided to take recourse to methods "the first demonstrations began Friday previous week at the Department of Sociology at the University of Copenhagen, and since then a new faculty or university every day been shut down a single day. the government will present a new proposal for tax reform late in the month, and until that happens, the protests increase.
