contents For a pair of finite relational structures $(\mathfrak{A},\mathfrak{B})$ such that $\mathfrak{A}$ homomorphically maps to $\mathfrak{B}$ we denote by $K_{(\mathfrak{A},\mathfrak{B})}$ the following statement: for all structures $\mathfrak{I}$ with the same signature as $\mathfrak{A}$ if all finite substructures of $\mathfrak{I}$ homomorphically maps to $\mathfrak{A}$ then $\mathfrak{I}$ homomorphically maps to $\mathfrak{B}$. In this article, we show that if $(\mathfrak{A},\mathfrak{B})$ has no Olšák polymorphism, then $K_{(\mathfrak{A},\mathfrak{B})}$ is equivalent to the ultrafilter principle over $\operatorname{ZF}$. This includes the statements $K_{(K_3,K_5)}$ and $K_{(H_2,H_c)}$ for all $c\geq 2$ where $K_n$ denotes the clique of size $n$ and $H_k$ denotes the ternary not-all-equal structure on a $k$-element set. This means, for example, that in any $\operatorname{ZF}$ model, if every finitely 3-colourable graph can be coloured by 5 colours then all these graphs can in fact be coloured by 3 colours.
