‘Zero leadership, zero governance’: Smotrich rails against ‘weak’ Netanyahu

United Right MK Bezalel Smotrich launches a broadside attack against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling him a “weak prime minister” who is not preventing “insanity” he says is raging within the justice system, following a controversial court decision to ban the city of Afula from hosting a concert with gender segregation for the local ultra-Orthodox community.

“Zero leadership. Zero governance. Dina Zilber is the real prime minister,” Smotrich — the transportation minister and a member of Netanyahu’s security cabinet — writes on Twitter, referring to the deputy attorney general who has been accused by right-wing politicians of pushing a progressive and activist agenda on the justice system.
