Due to a dispute between Likud and Blue, yesterday the agenda of the "skipping Norwegian law" bill was passed, according to which the ministers could resign and instead replace new MKs with the Knesset from each list. 

Earlier, Minister Dudi Amsalem (Likud) attacked Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit and called him an "alleged perpetrator", due to recent publications on Mendelblit-Ashkenazi recordings since the explosion of the Harpaz affair. Justice Minister Avi Nissenkorn (blue-and-white) came out against it, saying, "I reiterate: I have full confidence in the Attorney General. Ministers of government are allowed to express substantive criticism, but unrestrained attacks are crossing the red line."

Likud officials did not like Gantz's comments this week in an interview with the "Fact" program in News 12, in which he said, among other things, that the cease-fire would not be passed even if the High Court intervenes in the issue of rotation. Tzur, in an interview with the IDF waves, said he believed Gantz would be prime minister even before the date of November 2021. Likud members did not like things and said: "The heavy heat confused him. Drinking cold water."

In addition, MK Sharan (Likud) directly attacked Agriculture Minister Alon Schuster (blue and white) on the dairy market's policy and a Facebook post where she addressed the public: "He wants you to pay dearly for butter, or you just can't buy butter."
