0:45

I'm Taylor Strano from Mamma Mia's daily news

0:48

podcast, The Quickie. Here's what's happening in the

0:50

news today, Monday, April 29th. The

0:53

New South Wales opposition leader has called

0:55

for an increase in monitoring of men

0:57

charged with domestic violence, saying men accused

0:59

of those crimes should be monitored whilst

1:01

on bail with ankle monitors. Following

1:04

a weekend of national rallies to spotlight

1:06

violence against women, New South Wales opposition

1:09

leader Mark Speakman says keeping tabs on

1:11

alleged perpetrators would give police and alleged

1:13

victims more time to react. New

1:16

South Wales Women's Safety Commissioner Hannah

1:18

Tonkin is due to address a

1:20

crisis cabinet meeting this week alongside

1:22

other experts on family violence after

1:24

thousands of people marched the weekend

1:26

demanding action on the issue. 32

1:29

women have now lost their lives at the hands of

1:31

male violence in 2024. If

1:34

this story has raised something for you and

1:36

you'd like to speak to someone, you can

1:38

call the National Domestic Family and Sexual Violence

1:40

Counselling Service on 1800RESPECT. That's

1:43

1:47

Swift continues to smash records with her new

1:49

album, this time tying with Madonna as the

1:52

female artist with the most number one hits

1:54

in the UK. Swift's

1:56

new album, The Tortured Poets Department, has also pipped

1:58

the Beatles record, A Song as fastest artists

2:01

to have 12 UK number one

2:03

albums. Previously, it took the Beatles

2:05

14 years and one month to reach the number

2:07

one spot 12 times, Swift only

2:09

taking 11 years and six months. Amazon

2:11

Music and Spotify have both confirmed her

2:14

latest release was the most streamed album

2:16

in one day, with Spotify also confirming

2:18

it was the most streamed album in

2:21

a single week, surpassing one billion streams.

2:24

Meantime, in Australia, Swift also holds the

2:26

record for most number one albums in

2:28

the ARIA history for a female artist.

2:31

A woman has claimed Hillsong Church breached

2:33

its duty of care following an indecent

2:36

assault. The woman, whose case was

2:38

heard in the Supreme Court in Sydney, has

2:40

sued not just the church, but a college

2:42

she attended at the time and the male

2:44

perpetrator of the assault for damages. The

2:47

accused man pleaded guilty to indecently assaulting the

2:49

woman in 2016, and

2:51

the matter was dealt with in the local

2:53

court. Angus McInnis is the

2:55

lawyer for the man who committed the

2:57

assault. He described it as single, fleeting,

2:59

and spontaneous. He also told the court

3:01

the woman's initial account of the assault

3:04

varied from later versions and was somewhat

3:06

less serious. And it's been

3:08

a very happy birthday for Matilda's defender,

3:10

Ellie Carpenter, who is one step closer

3:12

to securing a Women's Champions League triumph

3:15

with Leon. The 24-year-old was the toast

3:17

of her teammates after their 2-1 victory

3:19

in the semifinal second leg at Paris

3:21

Saint-Germain on Sunday. They'll now meet Barcelona

3:24

in the final. Carpenter has

3:26

the remarkable opportunity to win a

3:28

third Champions League winners' medal with

3:30

Europe's most successful women's side. She

3:32

was previously a non-playing sub in the final when

3:34

they beat Wolfsburg in 2020 and

3:37

suffered an ACL injury during the 2022 showdown, which

3:41

they won against Barcelona in Turin. That's

3:43

your Evening News headlines. On tomorrow's episode,

3:46

we asked the question, would you put

3:48

your teenager in an Uber alone? The

3:50

rideshare company has plans to expand their

3:53

teen solo ride service to parts of

3:55

Australia, but should we be concerned about

3:57

safety? We asked a child safety

3:59

expert. and of course parents too. Check
