The Chairman of the Finance Committee was interviewed by Degel HaTorah - Yad Na'am website and said after talking about the tensions in the coalition that "the Finance Committee has to approve the state budget. I don't just sit there" • Earlier this week party officials criticized Netanyahu and said that "if there is no agreement We are not committed to the coalition" this in the background of the tensions regarding the approval of the state budget and the ultra-Orthodox's demand for significant budget increases


The tensions in the coalition are rising: 

the Chairman of the Finance Committee, MK Moshe Gafni, was interviewed by the ultra-Orthodox publication of the Torah flag - Yad Na'im and said: Netanyahu understood in the meeting that we built our demand and even told the Cabinet Secretary that we are right.

This of course does not satisfy us and we await his answer as agreed upon in the meeting." Gafni also said: "I remind you that the Finance Committee has to approve the budget and this is an important intermediate stop", hinting at the possibility of delaying the budget if his demands are not met.

Earlier this week, Torah Judaism officials threatened Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that they would not vote with the coalition, due to broken promises.

"They are underestimating and violating the coalition agreement. They think that the coalition commitment is unilateral, so no," said party officials.

If there is no agreement, we are not committed to the coalition.

They have a majority even without us, let them enjoy.

We will not allow them to harm the ultra-orthodox public."

"They underestimate and violate the coalition agreement."
