Jean's the best on animal rights

Many of the issues highlighted in this blog have been in the area of social justice, employment rights and so on - precisely because many people do not know that our Green MEPs work so hard on these areas in the European Parliament. Their excellent work on social justice issues, however, does not mean that they neglect more traditionally 'green' areas of concern - as this analysis by Protecting Animals in Democracy shows quite clearly.

As highlighted by the London Green Party, Jean scores joint top in PAD's analysis of a recent series of crucial votes on animal protection, along with the Leader of the Green Party, Caroline Lucas MEP, and a Plaid Cymru MEP (also a member of the Greens/EFA grouping in the Parliament).

Lots more about Jean's work on animal protection issues here, or just watch her explain in her own words, below:
