Likud officials warn of a collapse of the Israeli government
Senior officials in the Israeli right-wing Likud party warned, on Sunday, of the collapse of the government coalition, on the back of opinion polls indicating a decline in the popularity of these parties in the event of any new elections.
According to the Hebrew Maariv newspaper, several proposals were presented within the Likud for holding new elections as a popular referendum on the issue of judicial reforms, but the low levels that appear in recent opinion polls indicate the party's decline, along with the government coalition parties.
Officials in the Likud party consider that the elections today are the only recipe for mass suicide for the right-wing camp, which is reaching its lowest levels.
Some voices within the party, led by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, are calling for avoiding moving forward with judicial reforms and trying to reach an agreement on them and strengthening the position of the current government by pushing for an improvement in the economy, security, and others, to be an asset to right-wing parties in the upcoming elections.
