According to a political report, coalition members who had rebelled yesterday voted in favor at the request of a senior figure. The vote reportedly prevents the Attorney General from arguing against the government in the High Court.
The report indicates a significant shift in coalition dynamics: members who had previously rebelled against the leadership voted in favor of a measure that curbs the Attorney General's ability to challenge the government in the High Court of Justice. The identity of the senior figure who requested the vote was not specified. If confirmed, this would mark a notable legal and political development, limiting the executive branch's judicial oversight.
