Report: Even on Sunday PM was trying to coax Labor into gov’t without Gantz
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleChannel 12 news reports that as recently as Sunday Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was attempting to reach a 61-seat majority in the Knesset without Blue and White.
The report says Labor MKs Amir Peretz and Itzik Shmuli were offered far-reaching benefits if they agreed to join without Benny Gantz.
Shmuli was offered the justice or education ministries, while Peretz was promised the finance ministry and even a rotation of the premiership for one year out of four.
Peretz and Shmuli refused.
Likud refuses to comment on the claims.
