From everyone's point of view, certainly from the public's point of view, it would have been better if the incoming government had been deeply in its position and promoting the policy for which it was elected


The most homogenous coalition in the history of the Knesset continues to issue embarrassing Hokkah and Italolah pieces, the likes of which have not been seen there for a long time.

After the smeared coalition agreements, the lightning legislation planned even before the swearing in of the government, the division of the portfolios and ministries, the farce of the appointment of the Speaker of the Knesset was at least supposed to come to an end, but like every event in the formation of the next government, in this case too it is only the beginning of a saga which The end at all is yet to be known, when Prime Minister-designate Binyamin Netanyahu decided not to appoint a permanent speaker of the Knesset and end the matter, but to appoint Yariv Levin as temporary speaker, which guarantees another round of votes, more uncertainty and more instability in our legislature as Even within the Likud faction itself.

The events of the establishment of the government from the last month may accompany its work in the future as well, especially the lack of trust that was revealed among its members at the very beginning.

As well as the rotation dates for the various positions, which are also often points of friction in the proper work of the heads of the parties that make up the new coalition.

However, it is estimated that the homogeneity and common interest of its members will eventually overcome the divider, and the chance that the coalition will survive remains quite high.

The common interest will overcome the divider.

If the appointments of the heads of the Knesset, temporary and permanent, go smoothly, it will be a far less farce than what happened, for example, at the beginning of Ehud Barak's days as prime minister, when his candidate for the position was Shalom Simhon, but the one who ran against him, left his choice to be determined by the members of the Knesset, and even at the end of The winner was Avraham Borg.

The laws that the incoming coalition seeks to pass on the eve of its entry are minor and much more modest than those that the outgoing coalition sought to pass even before its first days, including a law for a parochial government with rotation, a broad Norwegian law and more.

With them, by the way, the Attorney General did not intervene in the legislative process at all, contrary to the experience of the current ombudsman, even though there it was a change of regimes, no less.

Wasting time doesn't do the opposition any good either.

It seems that wasting time and procrastination is not doing the government any good, nor the opposition.

The ministers already want to enter their offices and repair the damage of their predecessors.

And the outgoing ministers could no longer hold back and went out with demonstrations and protests against a government that had not served even a single day in office.

From everyone's point of view, certainly from the public's point of view, it would have been better if the incoming government was deep in its position and promoting the policy for which it was elected, enjoying overwhelming support from the public that elected it and serving as a fertile ground for unbridled attacks for the other side.
