Likud rebels against Netanyahu's Knesset plan
A report indicates that Benjamin Netanyahu's plan to expand his Likud party's influence through amending the system for selecting Knesset candidates is stirring controversy within the party. He aims to increase the number of reserved seats and reduce the impact of primaries. While supporters believe this will lead to a more disciplined and professional list, opponents warn that this move could weaken the party’s organizational base and diminish activists’ enthusiasm, thereby affecting the party’s ability to mobilize voters. Polls show that the coalition currently has between 50 and 52 seats, which is insufficient to form a government. It is expected that these amendments might diminish the presence of controversial figures and bring the party closer to a more disciplined image, but with the risk of eroding its organizational strength.
