Lapid takes on PM; Zionist Union to attack Lapid
Yair Lapid says he will do everything to prevent Netanyahu from becoming prime minister, but doesn’t rule out sitting in a coalition with any party — including Netanyahu’s Likud, Israel Radio reports.
The remarks came as the Walla news website unveiled the Zionist Union’s new campaign slogan, which is a takedown of Lapid. The decision to use the slogan, “You voted for Yair, you got Bibi — and everything stays the same,” came as the party concluded that it must garner more centrist votes to beat out the Likud party, the report says.
The political campaigners for the Zionist Union have not yet decided how to run the slogan — whether anonymously, or stamped with the party logo; whether widely, or in a limited pitch — but the report maintains that one aspect has been finalized: there will be a jingle.
