Nevena and Macca talk to Vicki Ward, MP Eltham, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Natural Disaster Recovery, Minister for Equality; Affirming Your Identity Is Now Free In Victoria.
Vicki Ward, as the Victorian Minister for Equality, was involved in the passing of an updated anti-vilification law in 2025. Key aspects of the update include making it easier for police to charge those who make hateful speech, lowering the threshold for criminal charges, and providing greater protection for the LGBTQIA+ community and people with a disability. The legislation removed a contentious defence for genuine political purposes after community concerns that it could be misused.
