Likud MK David Bitan, who petitioned against the cancellation of primaries, warned in an interview with 103FM that the move would harm the party and lead to its demise within eight years.
Likud MK David Bitan, who filed an urgent petition against canceling the party's primaries, doubled down on his warnings in a Monday morning interview with 103FM. Bitan said the decision to replace primaries with an arranging committee would 'harm the party' and predicted it would 'be eliminated within eight years.' The interview follows his urgent petition to the Likud party court on Sunday, arguing the move disenfranchises members and exposes the party to financial claims. As The Zioneer reported last week, Likud members have expressed anger at Prime Minister Netanyahu amid growing warnings that canceling primaries could spell the end of the party. The party's internal vote and the petition's outcome are still pending.
