Gabbay says he’s prepared to be no. 2 under Lapid

Zionist Union Chairman Avi Gabbay, says he’s prepared to be no. 2 on a list of candidates under Yesh Atid Chairman Yair Lapid, if polls indicate that Yesh Atid will fare better then his own Knesset faction in a future election.

“Some said I have deviated to the right or to the left, but that’s not true,” he tells Labor party student activists at Ben Gurion University. “I have said that I will not join a faction with the Joint (Arab) List and also that I won’t evacuate [settlement] blocs.”

“I’m not a product of political advisers,” he adds.
