Meretz MK: Labor chair will go down in history as an opportunist and a con man

Meretz MK Tamar Zandberg says that Labor chairman Amir Peretz “will go down in history as an opportunist and a con man” after the latter announced the termination of his party’s merger with Meretz in an apparent precursor to joining Netanyahu’s government.

“Peretz deceived voters, deceived Meretz, and rode on the backs of the Israeli left toward a miserable post in a despicable government. Meretz will continue to fight corruption, racism and annexation as it always has. I urge Labor MK Merav Michaeli to join us,” Zandberg says in a statement.
