Listen "It's election time - why your vote matters with Meg Watkins from the Animal Justice Party"

Episode Synopsis

The Australian federal election is nearly here, and I was lucky enough to sit down for a last-minute chat with Meg Watkins, a candidate for the Animal Justice Party for Corangamite electorate, on the Surf Coast in Victoria. Meg is a passionate animal and environmental advocate and is just 24 years old. On this episode, Meg shares how her overseas travels inspired her to go vegan and stand up for what she believes in. She also very graciously explains some of the Australian political system to me (this is not my forte guys, bear with me!) and why it's SO important to vote for the party that aligns best with your beliefs, even if it's they likely won't win.Connect with Meg:[email protected] on this episode:Animal Justice PartyAnonymous for the VoicelessFor podcast updates and recipes, you can follow me on Instagram, Tiktok or check out my blog https://vegan-diaries.com/.For podcast updates and recipes, you can follow me on Instagram, Tiktok or check out my blog https://vegan-diaries.com/.
