MK Shmuly slams Amsalem bill: 'Likud has crossed another red line'
None
MK Itzik Shmuly (Zionist Union) criticized on Tuesday morning a bill proposal by Likud MK David Amsalem that would protect the prime minister from criminal investigations over minor offenses while in office.
"This is a new level of disrespect to the public and undermining of the rule of law," Shmuly said. "The Likud has crossed another red line today on its way to turning Israel into a monarchy."
He added that "at this rate, Israel's citizens will aspire to be like Erdogan's Turkey."
