MK Simcha Rothman (Religious Zionism) attacked in an interview with 103fm the protesters outside the party headquarters in Shoham and the opposition leaders, who he says are silent in the face of the violence. He accused Yesh Atid and the Labor Party of behaving wildly toward him in the past, and claimed he was the only MK who was beaten by the Knesset speaker on the plenum floor. Regarding the freezing of coalition funds by the High Court, Rothman said the decision is not reasoned and will be overturned, and that the funds will be transferred. He called the decision 'arrogance and irresponsibility' and claimed that Judge Stein does not understand Knesset procedure. Rothman also addressed claims about dissolving the Knesset, saying that the Knesset will finish its term on schedule and that committees can be convened within the law. He expressed hope for the establishment of a right-wing coalition in the next Knesset, and stressed that he will accept the voters' decision if the people choose otherwise.
