Neil Jensen - Candidate for Joondalup

I am standing as your Animal Justice Party candidate for Joondalup to create a better world for our society’s most vulnerable and neglected members — animals.

With a background in the public sector and experience in policy analysis, I currently work as a systems engineer. However, it is my volunteer work in animal advocacy that has driven me over the last decade. Having held leadership and advisory roles with several activist groups, I joined the Animal Justice Party in 2017 with a commitment to bringing change at a political level.

If elected, I will push for broad reforms to our state’s woefully inadequate animal protection legislation — both to increase animal cruelty penalties to ensure that animal abusers are held to account, and to establish an Independent Minister for Animal Protection to eliminate the conflicts of interest that currently exist in welfare regulation.

I will also support desperately needed improvements to our education, mental health and emergency medical systems, as well as evidence-based programs to tackle violent crime and rehabilitate young offenders.

Neil's Key Priorities in this Election Include:

• Overhauling animal protection laws and addressing loopholes that enable animal cruelty
• Preventing discrimination against rental applicants with pets
• Ending cruel animal exploitation including greyhound racing and horse racing

Every vote for the Animal Justice Party is a step toward a brighter future for all living beings.

This campaign is powered entirely by people like you.
