MK Simcha Rothman, the chairman of the Knesset Constitution Committee, spoke to Israel National News at the “million-man demonstration” which was held in Jerusalem on Thursday evening, and promised that the judicial reform will be enacted in the Knesset. He was asked why the reform is being delayed and replied, "Everyone knows why it is being delayed, but all the people here are saying that this delay is temporary in order to reach agreements." "Everything is fine. The people demand judicial reform and that is what the people will get," added Rothman. Commenting on the stopping of the legislation of the reform and the feeling of victory among the left-wing protesters as a result, he said, "I can say that with God’s help, the demands of the public that were reflected in the election results are not going anywhere."
