Coalition whip Ofir Katz of the ruling Likud party says whoever doesn’t vote in favor of the judicial overhaul, “has ended his career in the Likud.”

Speaking on a Channel 14 talk show, Katz also says Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has made a mistake in calling to halt the overhaul legislation.

“He is wrong and wrong big time. Who do you think you have to talk to? Do you think there is another side waiting for you?” Katz says.
