Who Voted Against Free Speech?

Here's the list of MKs who voted against free speech and free press today, in favor of forbidding free newspapers (or more precisely, one specific free paper).

Note the Yesh Atid MKs who voted in favor of this travesty: Rabbi Dov Lipman...Dr. Ruth Calderon...Ofer Shelach....Yael German....

Here are the results of today's Knesset vote on the "Yisrael Hayom" Bill, a law that would make it illegal for someone to distribute a broad-circulation daily newspaper for more than a six-month period. 43 voted for, and 23 voted against. Take a good, long look at the names on each list, so that you learn who in our Knesset is a democrat and who is a Bolshevik.
