The Likud faction gathered last night (Tuesday) for a consolidation at the Prime Minister's residence on Balfour Street in Jerusalem.
The Prime Minister's wife, Sara Netanyahu, opened the evening and welcomed the faction members: "A few weeks ago we were here, we invited all 30 members of Knesset, and I said that we aspire for everyone to enter the Knesset.
""We have the best team, the people sitting here are the best in the Knesset: experienced, smart, with ideals, and we have an excellent combination between the most experienced and best leader, the best team, and our new and talented young people.".
