Ichud Le’umi (National Union) MK Aryeh Eldad protested the government’s decision Sunday to build a new residence for the Prime Minister and said the money should go to education or health. The government decided Sunday to dedicate 650 million shekels to building the new residence.
Eldad said that the government seems to be completely unaware that the rest of the country is experiencing a recession. In addition, Eldad called on the next Prime Minister to cancel the plans and do something better with the money.
