More than a week has passed since the political system shook, when the right-wing MK, Idit Silman, announced her resignation from the coalition she ran, “I can no longer,” she said. Since then, many speculations have been raised about another defector who is expected to join the opposition, and many voices believe that the minority government, which is in any case narrow, will not fill its days with only 60 votes.
A party member, Avir Kara, whose name was also raised as a likelihood that he would retire and join the opposition, chose today (Friday), on the eve of Seder night, to clarify the state of affairs. “I want to put you in order,” he wrote, “the situation is very simple. Edith Silman fell into the trap. She stood under a roller coaster of very heavy pressures, slanders, curses and demonstrations and surrendered. But the truth must be told – the Likud has no alternative government in this Knesset. ”
“I sent Idit and Shikli to see if there is – so far it seems the only option is to go to the polls. We may get there. I will make every effort to prevent that from happening! If we go to the polls again we will not be able to complete the independent network .
Kara details the 36th government’s economic plans, which are unlikely to materialize if there are elections again, including shortening internships, reforms to lower the cost of living, the housing crisis, shortening cumbersome licensing procedures and more.
“The people of Israel do not need elections at the moment. There is a need to complete the security and social measures of the government, there is a need for stability and there is a need for a state budget that will allow ministries to operate and provide services to citizens. The citizens and complete the important reforms, allow the IDF and the government to eliminate terrorism without dragging the systems into more years of elections and defamation.
I told Shikli and Idit – let’s connect for the citizens who sent us and not for such and such politicians, we can bring together achievements for the general public, the national camp, the free economy for entrepreneurs and producers and achievements to lower the cost of living. We will work for the citizens and not for the politicians for a change. If he does not succeed – it is always possible to press the election button in the future. They have not yet accepted my offer, but the offer is valid. ”
