Netanyahu retains poll lead after Gaza campaign
Binyamin Netanyahu, the leader of the Likud party, has maintained a lead in advance of the 10 February election that is several points clear of his main rivals, both of whom have been directly involved in the Gaza campaign.
The Guardian reports: “A poll published in the Maariv daily yesterday gave Netanyahu 28 seats in Israel's 120-seat parliament, five more than his closest rival Tzipi Livni, the foreign minister and leader of the centrist Kadima party. Ehud Barak, the Labour defence minister, trails in third.”
