Israel's PM Benjamin Netanyahu calls to block newly agreed coalition

Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu has lashed out at a newly agreed coalition which looks set to remove him from power after 12 years as Prime Minister. Netanyahu called on right-wing members of parliament to block the coalition from taking office.<br />''Eight parties reached an agreement to work together to form a new government late on Wednesday.<br />'' <br />''But the group, from across Israel's political spectrum, still needs parliamentary backing to take office.<br />'' <br />''<span style="color: #222222;">Observers have noted that Netanyahu – who failed to form his own coalition despite his Likud party winning the most seats in the March vote – is likely to try to prevent the group getting the support it needs.</span><br />
