Yechimovich lambastes PM's plan to concentrate power

Labor leader Shelly Yechimovich on Sunday lambasted Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's plans to increase his power over the legislative process, calling it an unprecedented, dangerous step that concentrates government power in the hands of one person.
"The fateful decisions on policy, defense and socio-economic matters are bound to be obligatorily accepted without meaningful discussion," Yechimovich said. "We are talking about centralizing moves that endanger the democratic nature of the State of Israel."
