Blue and White lambastes minister’s call to ignore High Court

The Blue and White party slams Tourism Minister Yariv Levin for calling on Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein to ignore the High Court, which has indicated he should hold a vote on his replacement within two days.

“Minister Levin, your godfather [former prime minister] Menachem Begin would have been ashamed of what you wrote,” the party says in a statement.

“Democracy is democracy, and not only when it suits you,” it adds. “Respect the majority’s ruling and stop harming the state’s institutions.”
