Israeli journalist Yinon Magal used his Twitter account to praise Naftali Bennet for daring to “breaking Bayit Yehudi’s glass ceiling” by launching his New Right party, even though he failed to pass the minimum electoral threshold.

As Bennet explained, his new party was no longer sectoral, but a right-wing party “for everyone, not just the religious”.

Yair Netanyahu, a son of the prime minister, did not have words of praise for Bennet however, stating “thanks for burning four right-wing votes”.
