Gideon Sa'ar welcomed: "There is a national need for a turnaround that will end the ongoing political crisis."
The battle for primaries in Likud: Despite the news that the planned date for the Likud primaries is December 23, it seems that the event will take place about three days later, on the 26th, of course, if the 22nd Knesset is dispersed tonight.

Knesset Member Gideon Sa'ar, who is expected to run in these primaries against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, welcomed the decision and wrote in his Twitter account: "I thank MK Haim Katz for his efforts to reach an agreed date. I will set up a positive, clean and relevant campaign. A day for Israel's future. There is a national need for a turnaround that will end the ongoing political crisis, form a strong government and unite the people of Israel. "
Last night, Knesset member Yoav Kish, who became one of Saar's prominent supporters, confronted Knesset Member Mickey Zohar. Kish complained about the proposed date, claiming that the primaries on that date would allow for mistakes and even fraud in the election process. "There will be no," Kish wrote in his Twitter account, adding, "the primaries date will be the 6.1 to allow fair and democratic elections. The primaries are always set about three weeks after the center's decision on the issue.
To this, his party member, Knesset Member Mickey Zohar, responded to his Twitter account, writing: "And when will we start with the Likud campaign? You will be surprised, but there are other important things (such as the future of the state, for example) besides personal political ambitions."
