After criticism, Labor chief says ‘everyone’ will want to join his future government
Labor party chairman Avi Gabbay dismisses criticism by the coalition Yisrael Beytenu and Kulanu parties, after their respective leaders rule out sitting in a future government under his leadership.
He says the comments by Avigdor Liberman and Moshe Kahlon, on the contrary, “very much encourage us,” as it signals the lawmakers are panicking by his climb in the opinion polls.
Gabbay, speaking at the weekly Zionist Union faction meeting, says “everyone will stand in line to join the coalition” when he wins the next election.
