    Because they’ve recently lost a huge referendum about changes to the Constitution, and every channel on TV is talking about government crises and how the right-wing coalition that’s currently governing is falling apart, as the referendum vote was seen as a popular no-confidence vote on the current government.

    People are pissed, we had huge protests last autumn about the situation in Gaza, in my city it was the biggest one I’ve ever been to, so this is a bit of a sensitive topic, an easy way to gain back some poll percentages.

      But I bet people are more pissed about economic and social situation, because all these right and centrist refuse to make regulations and tax the billionaires while the workers pay for everything in the country.
