The Movement party leader Tzipi Livni told the media hours after being served with her letter of dismissal on Tuesday 10 Kislev that the Knesset has gone extreme and the upcoming election will leave voters with a left-wing or right-wing extremist option and that the centrist option has all but disappeared. She blames Naftali Bennett and his party for pulling the entire nation into a situation that the international community is against Israel and its current policies, warning he is dangerous and must be reined in before it is too late.

Livni feels the voters in this election will have to select between a centrist/extremist right-wing bloc headed by Likud or a balanced centrist/left-wing bloc headed by the Labor party.
