Former Communications Minister Yoaz Hendel says "the lack of governance across the country must be an issue that is debated in this election campaign. What has been done so far is not working. Years have been lost.

"Violence, islands of anarchy, and lack of backing for police officers. From my experience in Communications Ministry, in places where the political echelon is busy dealing and doesn't want to decide, there's chaos. There is an alternative to this reality."
