Meretz MK Yair Golan said his left-wing party won’t support bills that aim to unseat Netanyahu unless Blue & White’s Benny Gantz quits as Knesset speaker.
“If Benny Gantz wants our support for this aforementioned batch of bills, he should relinquish the position of Knesset speaker to a seasoned and experienced lawmaker from the [left-wing] bloc who isn’t tilting toward the government of corruption and waste. This would be the first step in restoring lost confidence,” he tweeted.
Gantz has yet to officially approve the legislation targeting Netanyahu, according to a Knesset agenda for Monday.
