Blue and White MK: There will be no legislation bypassing High Court
Blue and White MK Chili Tropper says the new government with Likud will not advance legislation that bypasses the High Court of Justice, a long-held aspiration of many right-wing politicians.
“There will be no legislation bypassing the High Court. If it [the court] decides that Netanyahu cannot form a government, we will respect that and probably go to elections,” Tropper tells Army Radio.
Activists have petitioned the court to block Netanyahu from forming a coalition due to the bribery, fraud and breach of trust charges against him.
Blue and White and Likud clinched a unity deal this week after over a year of political deadlock.
