As part of the attempt to form an alternative right-wing government, attention is once again drawn to a new hope • Likud officials came up with an idea: to propose realizing the internal security portfolio


Against the background of MK Nir Orbach's resignation from the coalition and his desire to form an alternative right-wing government in the current Knesset together with the opposition, the main attention is now focused on new hope. To crack than the party's chairman himself, Gideon Saar.

Reminder: Handel and Zvi Hauser belong to Derech Eretz, an independent party within a new hope.

Likud sources claim that even if Saar finally agrees to come to an alternative right-wing government, Handel will be the mine and can split.

In light of the concerns, Likud officials came up with the idea of ​​seducing Handel with the help of a proposal to become Minister of Internal Security.

The reason: Handel often deals with issues of governance.

Also, if he accepts the offer, his departure from the Ministry of Communications will also torpedo the reforms that are inconvenient for the ultra-Orthodox.

As for Saar - the new chairman of Tikva refuses to cooperate with the Likud and emphasizes that there are no such contacts, but this does not let go of the Likud. The starting point is that Saar is not interested in the election, but fears that Netanyahu will play it against the "base" by forming a joint government and then go to the polls.

If Yoaz Handel accepts the Ministry of Internal Security, his departure from the Ministry of Communications will also torpedo the reforms that are inconvenient for the ultra-Orthodox.

The Likud, however, is considering raising the proposal to dissolve the Knesset as early as next week, but will not do so without clear knowledge that MK Orbach (right) is voting with them. , But the Likud, as stated, wants certainty.

Orbach went on vacation

At present, it is still unclear whether Orbach will give the coalition another extension beyond the week he pledged.

These days he wants to break away from the political events and goes on vacation in the north.

By the way, in order to pass the dissolution of the Knesset in a preliminary reading, it is not necessary for Orbach to vote in favor: since there is no obligation for a minimum of 61 fingers, it is enough for him to be absent.

Were we wrong?

Fixed!
