Growing Rift Between Likud Party and the Zionist Camp
Lesson Brief
NRG
On February 5, NRG reported on the growing gap in parliamentary seats expected to be won by the two leading parties in the upcoming election. Likud has risen to gaining 27 seats according to the most recent poll, while the Zionist Camp has lowered to only 23 seats. Consequently, the politically right bloc has risen leaving little chance for other candidates to assemble the future government of Israel. Additionally, the Likud representative submitted a complaint against the V15 organization and the Labor party concerning their transgression of the law of financing political parties.
