My interview with the lovely Fiona Patten, former Member of the Victorian Legislative Council in Melbourne, Australia. Author of Sex, Drugs and the Electoral Role. Fiona talks about her achievements in parliament and we discuss the importance of healthy attitudes to sex for people with disabilities, including the abuse Fiona received for helping a disabled woman find sexual fulfilment. (https://fionapatten.com.au/)
In Parliament, her achievements were many including the
* Medically Supervised Injecting Centre in North Richmond,
* Safe Access Zones from protesters around fertility clinics.
* Voluntary Assisted Dying laws – initiated inquiry that led to reform
* Sex work decriminalised
* A Spent Convictions Scheme for criminal records in Victoria
* Uber and ridesharing legalised
* Pandemic Legislation for Victoria
* Leaving foster and out of home care age extended from 18 to 21 years.
