Elections soon? A bill to dissolve the Knesset to be voted on next week

(Worthy News) – The Likud intends to bring a bill to dissolve the Knesset and initiate an election next Wednesday.

If Yamina rebel Nir Orbach votes for the bill, there would be a majority, but Orbach does not want to crown Alternate Prime Minister Yair Lapid.

According to the coalition agreement, Lapid would automatically become prime minister of a caretaker government during an election and until a new government would be formed, if the current government was brought down by two MKs from Bennett’s camp: Orbach and former coalition chairwoman Idit Silman.

If the bill passes, an election would be held on the first Tuesday after 90 days that does not fall on a holiday or a holiday eve, October 25. [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
