Is there a future-TLM on the way to dissolution?

 Former Defense Minister Moshe (Boogie) Ya'alon said in an interview broadcast today (Friday) on News 12 that in order to transfer seats from the right-wing bloc to the left-wing bloc, he and Lapid will probably have to run separately. Former Gadi Izenkot intend to run together.

He reserved that the final decision would be made when an election is officially announced. 

In the matter of running with Izenkot, Ya'alon as aforesaid answered in the affirmative to the question in the matter.

He further noted that in case Izenkot enters, then it is clear that the former chief of staff will join as number 2 of the former minister. According to him, Izenkot learned from a Ganz case that it is better to gain political experience first. 

The Knesset member, who resigned from the Likud following the rift with Prime Minister Netanyahu, said in an interview: "The direction I am looking for is how to replace this bad government in the country. A dictatorship, a truth or a lie, and that is what I am aiming for in the run-up to the election. "

Ya'alon described his frustration that the current list does not take off.

"Even in Bish Atid-TLM we are 17-18 seats in the polls, it does not move, certainly in the bloc and therefore the force should be strengthened in any case.

"I saw polls talking about the fact that in order to break the lumps, we will probably have to run separately, Yair Lapid and I," he said.

The former minister also noted that for him, the candidate with the most seats will be the candidate for prime minister of the center-left bloc.

"Whoever is the biggest is the one who will lead, but first of all we need to break the bloc. I come to change, I come not to leave Netanyahu with immunity and overcoming," he noted.
