Prime minister’s coalition in jeopardy after Aryeh Deri ruled ineligible for government due to tax offences
Deri was defiant. “When they close the door on us, we’ll get in through the window. When they close the window, we’ll break through the ceiling,” he said.. One such proposal under consideration is the elimination of the court’s “reasonability” test when reviewing government decisions.
Critics say the various changes at issue would place too much power in the hands of the government and weaken the supreme court. Proponents said they would correct a power imbalance between the executive and judicial branches. Netanyahu will now have to decide whether he abides by the court ruling and fires his key ally Deri – or takes the dispute with the judicial system up a notch and defies it. A spokesperson for Netanyahu had no immediate comment.But the leaders of the parties in the ruling coalition said the ruling was disrespectful to voters after the 1 November election.
“I am sure that he will abide by the ruling. It doesn’t mean that he will respect the ruling,” Fuchs said. “What will probably happen is that they will do very quick legislation that will enable him to appoint Deri again.”
