Tonight (Saturday), the Labor Party rejects Minister Nitzan Horowitz's call for Meretz to unite parties.
The chairman of the Labor faction, MK Ram Shefa, said that "I have two simple things to say about Nitzan Horowitz's statements about the desire to unite with the Labor Party: One, I think it is irresponsible to talk about elections at the moment, the very statement about elections puts us in To the dynamics of elections, and we deal with it instead of dealing with the education system or the cost of living.
"The second thing, I respect Nitzan very much, but the Labor Party is back to being a center party. It has a strong leg on the left, and it has a strong leg in the center, and it is not going to enter that niche with Meretz. I mean, there is nothing to do now. In any case, there is no connection with Meretz. "
As I recall, on Friday Horowitz said "I had a historic right in forming this government, we proved that the left can be in leadership and in power. We proved that social democratic policy is very practical and touches the people. I would like to see a united Social Democratic party, I believe in it. ".
Earlier today, as part of a cultural event in Rishon Lezion, the Minister for Regional Cooperation, Issawi Farage, joined his party chairman, saying that "Meretz and Labor should be disbanded and a new Social Democratic Party established."
