Likud MKs turn on Rivlin, claim he’s abusing his powers in bid to oust Netanyahu

(Worthy News) – Likud lawmakers lashed out at President Reuven Rivlin Wednesday, accusing him of being in cahoots with the prime minister’s rivals, after the president urged the various party leaders to engage in “out-of-the-ordinary coalitions, collaborations that cross sectors,” in order to break the extended political deadlock, and lamented the Netanyahu-led government’s failure to pass a budget.

The president is set to begin consultations with the political parties on Monday, following last week’s national election, the fourth in two years. On Wednesday, he is expected to task a candidate with forming a government.

Since the election yielded no sure winner, it was not immediately clear if he would entrust the task to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — whose Likud party won the most seats but lacks a clear path to forming a coalition — or another, as-yet unspecified candidate such as Yesh Atid’s Yair Lapid or Yamina’s Naftali Bennett who could muster more support.
