Opposition head MK Yair Lapid has again attacked Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, this time for the prime minister's criticism of senior Treasury official Shaul Meridor.
"Bibi [Netanyahu] is, as usual, confusing what's good for him with what's good for the country," he said. "It's absolutely the job of the person in charge of budgeting to express his opinion on a plan that would destroy the economy ... If he hadn't done so, he would have been remiss. Bibi is the one who messed up - and Bibi is the one who should go."
