Liora Shapiro (Yebru: ליאורה שפירא) is currently the Leader of the Opposition within the Knesset and the leader of Avoda. She is the youngest member in the chamber, having only joined 4 years ago. Shapiro has quickly climbed the ladder into leadership after Aron Leverson, her predecessor, failed to beat Lasker's coalition in the snap 2018 election. Liora is a breath of fresh air for a country going through a tremendous amount of change while tensions in the Samarran Valley is only getting worse. Many on both sides of the political spectrum believe she will one day become Prime Minister.
