Head of Labour Isaac Herzog commented on the lack of women on the Likud party list saying on Saturday that a list that has less women on it than the number of women in some Gulf parliaments is not worthy to lead the country.
"Netanyahu [Prime Minister Benjamin] has spit in the face of half of the voters of the state," Herzog said at a cultural event in Mevaseret Zion, the JPost reported on Saturday.
Herzog said he was proud that the female representation on the Labor list for the March Knesset election will be "large and central and that it will be a balanced and proper list to lead Israel."
MK Miri Regev who won the 5th spot, was the only woman who placed in the top ten candidates for the next election.
MK Gila Gamliel, was the only other woman to score a realistic place on the Likud candidate list, won the 14th spot.
