Hello,

A friend of mine has updated the draft feature with 'news from within', 
and a real person from 'within', but stuck in the UK is writing a fuller 
feature around the original news sources used - adding more 
political/historical context:

They've also published an article on the newswire here with a brief 
timeline of events:

hope that helps,
