In this episode I sit down with Sasha who is an animal rights activist. We focus on the importance of animal rights in politics and discuss his time campaigning as a Member of Parliament on behalf of The Animal Welfare Party. We also talk about how to be an activist, problems we face in politics and the solutions found in abolitionism, facing criminal charges, and caring for vegan dogs.
