Haredi workers threaten to split from 'Degel HaTorah' • following 'Tov'?

This morning (Sunday) a group of Haredi workers in Bnei Brak, began to sign residents on a shelf Party support, which will serve as an alternative to Degel HaTorah.

Last Knesset elections, the Orthodox employees were an integral part of 'Degel' and worked for her various headquarters.

Conversation with a member of the leadership of the new organization is explained that the action was done against the backdrop of anger on negotiations opposite them. Demand, he says, is a combination of their representative, attorney Moshe Morgenstern, number 83 on the list of 'Degel', which is a non realistic place on the list.

Do you not think that this is a shot in the arm of your group, ideologically of course? - I asked the man, who responded to me, if Gedolei Yisrael, headed by Hgray"l Steinman, orders not to submit to the Election Commission they will not to submit it.
Have you asked before running the party? - I tried to find out. Their answer was negative. One of the group members even tried to imply that "Degel factors" are advising them of the move, but investigation with Chazon Ish 5 shows that there is no support for a step above in terms of Degel leadership.

We note that the ultra-Orthodox employees always took pride in Degel and that they are not Tov and that they are subject to Degel leader, the Rosh Yeshiva. The last step, according to many, may harm them strategically down the road.

Who rushed to congratulate the new movement taking shape are ultra-Orthodox group in the Likud. "In recent years, a growing public recognition that the Haredi parties generally do not represent the various shades of Haredi society and that there is room and need for political more frameworks. We are very happy to see another set of Haredi employees, including Moshe Morgenstern, Yehuda Glickman and Benny Granot who finally decided to retire from Degel Hatorah and we invite them to join us at the democratic Likud party.

We are not sure the Haredi workers in Degel, take pride in the above welcome ...

During the last elections, Degel HaTorah, won seven city council seats. With the appointment of MK Yaakov Asher as MK there is a need to fill the void with a new representative, and apparently parachute of municipal committee chairman, Degel, Menachem Shapira, would be a decent replacement when the spot will be manned by current Mayor Avraham Rubinstein.

But in the background there is much pressure not to replace the existing list members, and as we have previously introduced in B'Chadrei Charedim some rabbis even approached the management of 'Degel' with the issue. Ever changing list doesn’t include the Orthodox employee's representative list Morgenstern, and perhaps this is what constitutes the explosion of the factors negotiations between the parties.

According to the representative of the Orthodox workers before elections they were promised full integration movement and its institutions, including local lists in various cities. To their opinion about 3,500 families in Bnei Brak will support their shelf Party, so a representative they most certainly deserve.

Party support shelf, against the opinion of Hgray"l? - I asked them when I was wondering if 3,500 families will reach that step. Response stated, we will run only if Hgray"l allows it.
