We welcome Georgie Purcell, Animal Justice Party MP representing Northern Victoria to the show and chat about her lifelong love of animals and social justice. Georgie talks about her campaigning experience and working as Chief of Staff for Andy Meddick MP, who was Animal Justice Party Victoria's first elected MP, before running as a candidate herself and being elected in November 2022. Georgie is passionate about improving the protection of animals - whether they be farmed, native or companion animals. Her priorities include banning duck shooting, securing an inquiry into greyhound racing, supporting Victoria's wildlife rescuers and carers, stopping commercial kangaroo slaughter, improving accessibility to vets and introducing a subsidised vet care system in the state.
