Recommendation to the President
- Recommends Gadi Eisenkot to form the government. Said on leaving the President’s Residence, Thursday 5 November at 19:50. Source: Jerusalem Post.
Alliance of two former prime ministers: Bennett's new party and Lapid's Yesh Atid, reviving their 2013 Brothers' Pact with Bennett at the top of the slip. It runs on a service law that drafts everyone, a shopping basket 30% cheaper within three years, and a constitution built on the Declaration of Independence.
The list, who comes with them
How this list is picked. Bennett's B'Yachad and Yesh Atid remain separate parties cooperating in one list: each side fills its own places, alternating from second place down, and the leaders set the top between them. Yesh Atid's places are filled by a selection committee rather than a primary, and the agreement lets Yesh Atid leave again after the election.
