[upbeat music] Hi, I'm Ailish Delaney with the latest from the Quickie newsroom for Tuesday, June 16th. Australians are rallying around Coogee shark attack victim Leah Stewart with more than $300,000 raised to support her recovery. The 35-year-old mother and teacher has undergone multiple surgeries, including the amputation of her arm, and remains in a critical condition in Sydney's St. Vincent's Hospital. Her family say they're shocked and devastated by the attack and have asked for support as she faces further surgeries in coming days. New South Wales Premier Chris Minns has meanwhile ruled out a great white shark cull, saying he's not convinced it would be effective. Pauline Hanson says she doesn't want coalition MPs defecting to One Nation as the party vets a growing pool of candidates, including some high-profile celebs. Speaking to 2GB, Hanson said fewer than five coalition MPs had approached the party about possibly joining, but insisted she wasn't interested in taking them on. Hanson said some of the potential candidates had what she described as celebrity status.
