Balad MK says hard-line faction won’t recommend Gantz to be PM
Balad faction chairman Mtanes Shihadeh tells the Kan public broadcaster that his ultra-nationalist slate will not recommend to President Reuven Rivlin that Blue and White party chairman Benny Gantz be tasked with forming a coalition.
Balad did not recommend Gantz after the last election either, splitting from the rest of the Joint List.
However, Gantz has also disqualified the hard-line faction, saying it is beyond the pale.
