Is Nof HaGalil changing? Joint List overtakes Likud to become city's largest party

Four years ago, Likud dominated the ballot boxes in Nof HaGalil. Now, the Joint List leads by thousands of votes.

Is Nof HaGalil changing? Joint List overtakes Likud to become city's largest party

MK Ahmad Tibi, chairman of the Joint List, stated in a recent interview that his party will not participate in the coalition. According to Tibi, his party aims to make the coalition process smoother rather than more difficult. He expressed support for the replacement of Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana and pledged to vote against any Likud constructive motions of no confidence against a potential government.

Tibi also affirmed that he will not propose any bills to dissolve the Knesset and will support the coalition from an external standpoint in exchange for specific agreements. These agreements encompass addressing Arab crime concerns and recognizing Bedouin villages. This stance was revealed following the announcement of a two-stage plan aimed at forming an alternative government from outside the coalition in return for commitments to the needs of Arab society.

This plan also sought to prevent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from retaining power if neither coalition fails to secure a majority following the elections.
