âIsraelâs election is not a single game, but a tournament â and election day is only the opening round,â Dr Nimrod Nir of Agam Labs told The Independent.
âOur polling suggests that neither bloc is likely to secure a governing majority, leaving three possible outcomes: a unity government bringing Netanyahu together with more liberal parties, an alternative coalition backed by Arab parties, or yet another election.

The colonial reality is that Israel and the US have come up with a cunning plan to outsource Israelâs continued dominance or occupation of the Gaza Strip under a governor, Tony Blair (a man much reviled in the Middle East), and a king, Donald Trump, who would run Gaza.
They would rule indefinitely or until the Palestinian Authority, which governs the bits of the West Bank where Israel doesnât want to be bothered with directly occupying, can show that it can be trusted to also run Gaza the way that the US and Israel want.
Some big names may quit during the day, because many cannot accept the result. If you think Johnson is a disaster on Monday morning, youâre not going to believe heâs a genius on Monday evening, and no one would believe you if you said so.
I have no idea what qualifies Ms Coladangelo, a lobbyist and communications director, to be an adviser and non-executive director at the Department of Health and Social Care, other than the fact she has been pals with Hancock for years. Perhaps we know now why Hancock failed at the time of the appointment to declare his âfriendshipâ with her. In her time of advising him, Hancock oversaw the highest death rates in Europe from Covid, so the value of this appointment was seemingly for him, not for us. The whole thing stinks. It stank even before the videos of the kiss.
EU leaders are prepared to let Britain delay Brexit again to allow time for a second referendum, The Independent understands.
After parliament rejected Theresa Mayâs deal for a third time, the bloc called a summit on 10 April â two days before the UK is on course to leave without a deal.
Who would venture to forecast with any confidence that the UK will still be the UK in its current composition in the next 20 years?
Mr Corbyn has angered Labour MPs and supporters by arguing Brexit cannot be stopped â and by going on to reject the growing calls for a fresh public vote.
But Ms Thornberry said: âIf we donât have a general election then, yes, of course all the options remain on the table and we would campaign for there to be a peopleâs vote â but there are several stages before we get that.â
Warning Britain âstands on the brink of the greatest crisis since the Second World Warâ, he became the ninth Conservative MP to demand she âgive the public the final sayâ.
The call came after the number of signatures on The Independentâs petition for a Final Say referendum cleared one million in just over three months.
