Politics of Belgium Political parties Elections

DierAnimal (from the Flemish and French words for "animal") is an animal welfare political party in Belgium. The party seeks to create a society where all living things are respected equally regardless of skin color, gender, age or species. It supports "animal liberation" and opposes the meat industry. ^[1] In the 2019 regional elections, with Victoria Austraet the party won a single seat in the Brussels Parliament. ^[2]

Austraet was evicted from the party in May 2020 due to disagreements. The party thus lost its only parliamentary representative. ^[3]
