Animal Justice Party NSW

WHO WE ARE

The Animal Justice Party (AJP) was formed in response to growing public concern over the abuse, harm and mistreatment of non-human animals across Australia. We give a political voice to animals, pursue critical issues of animal protection through Australia’s political system and ensure the major political parties to adopt animal-friendly policies.

The AJP is a rapidly growing political force, and we now have five elected members: Mark Pearson and Emma Hurst in the NSW Legislative Council, Andy Meddick in the VIC Legislative Council, Charlie Vincent in Alpine Shire Council and Julie Sloan in Bendigo Council.
