Upping pressure on Blue and White, Lapid vows no-confidence vote next week
(Worthy News) – In a move aimed at pressuring the centrist Blue and White party to break ranks with the coalition amid an ongoing deterioration of relations within the government, opposition leader Yair Lapid said Monday that he’ll lead a proposal next week to disperse the Knesset and call new elections.
“The bill will come to a vote. It is time for elections,” he said at the opening of his Yesh Atid party faction meeting at the Knesset. “Netanyahu wants elections in June so he’s playing for time. There is no reason to let him go to elections at the time that’s convenient for him.”
Earlier this month, the Yesh Atid-Telem Knesset party announced at the last minute that it was withdrawing a bill to dissolve the Knesset, slamming former ally Blue and White for not following through on its own ultimatum for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to pass a state budget by the end of October.
