A new 'Ulpan Shishi' (Channel 12) poll shows low public approval ratings for the coalition government and widespread public opposition to the Basic Law: Torah Study, as Israel heads toward an election campaign.
A new 'Ulpan Shishi' (Channel 12) weekend poll, reported on Friday evening, indicates the coalition government is receiving low public approval grades as the Knesset heads toward an election recess. The survey also measures significant public opposition to the coalition's proposed Basic Law: Torah Study, which would constitutionally equate Torah study with national service. The poll results come after weeks of intense debate over the legislation, which has drawn fire from opposition parties and even some coalition allies. The full poll data and breakdowns were not provided in the raw alert. Further details are expected in Channel 12's broadcast.
