Livnat: Likud ministers won't resign from gov't

Education Minister Limor Livnat said on Friday that Likud ministers would not leave the government since they held their cabinet seats by right of party members' votes. Those who were elected by Likud members and then left the movement are the ones who should resign from their positions, Livnat told Israel Radio. Livnat added that she believed Labor, Likud and Kadima would all have nearly equal power following the elections, and that she did not rule out a coalition made up of the Zionist parties.
