This week on Represent National, Ashley, Benita and Zoe sat down with Pamela Anderson, the CEO of EMILYs List Australia, to talk about women in politics, reproductive rights, the Liberal Party's glaring gender issue and whether the Labor Party is a viable avenue for progressive politics anymore. 

We also talked about the federal Labor government teaming up with the LNP to pass changes (see: cuts) to the National Disability Insurance Scheme, despite advocates, participants, experts and even the Australian Human Rights Commission urging the government to withdraw the bill. 

Finally, we discussed Pauline Hanson's appearance at the Farmers Fightback rally in the Wimmera region of Victoria, and the strategic benefits of winning over farmers and rural Victorians ahead of the state election.
