If you’d like, I can:
- Pull more detailed snippets from specific outlets (e.g., MKFM local news, MK Citizen, MK Council site).
- Create a quick one-page summary with dates, sources, and quick takeaways.
- Track a few topics you care about (crime prevention, council housing/disability services, transport projects) and provide weekly updates.
Would you prefer a brief bullet list of the top 5 items with direct source links, or a short table comparing ongoing projects (topic, status, timeline, source)? I can tailor it to your preferred outlets or topics.
