77- "It's not vandalism, we're just interacting with the art"

Animal Rising have made the news by 'modifying' a prominent portrait of King Charles III and drawing people's attention to the horrors carried out under the RSPCA Assured scheme...but will anyone actually remember the message behind the action...or will Wallace & Gromit simply get a bit more publicity from the stunt?!

Julie, Carlos & Ant discuss this and several other stories from the week's vegan & animal rights-related news.
