Line 12:

'''Kayode Tau''' is the Prime Consul of the [[Marlinist Consulate]] and a member of the Free Marlinist Movement, a faction within the [[Marlinist Colonies]] that opposes [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|Neo-Marlinism]].

Tau was elected to the post of prime consul, the Marlinist Colonies' highest diplomatic office, on July 22, 3307, defeating [[Verity Dexter]] of the Marlinism Reformation Party, who was the NMLA's preferred candidate. Only days later on July 29, one of Prime Consul Tau's first official acts was to issue a plea to the galactic community for humanitarian aid after the NMLA bombed two Marlinist starports in retaliation for Dexter's rejection by voters. He coordinated relief efforts with the [[Alliance]] and [[Federation]]. When the Exiled Marlinist Assembly of Baltah'Sine forcibly subjugated the Marlinism Reformation Party and arrested its surviving leadership on August 19, decapitating the NMLA's political wing, Tau informed the superpowers that his people were resolved to assist them in defeating the NMLA.

*The [[Marlinist Colonies]] are recovering from a period of political infighting and inter-faction conflict. [[Octavia Volkov]] has been voted in as the new first minister following a snap election. Her decisive action against [[Aaron Whyte]]'s Neo-Marlinist movement, which led to the elimination of the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA's]] political wing, drew huge support from voters. In a parliamentary address, First Minister Volkov said: "We must focus on building an [[independent]] society rather than changing the [[Empire]]. In time we will evolve into the fully-fledged Marlinist Republic we have fought so hard for, and perhaps inspire our Imperial cousins to walk the path to democracy." Marlinist factions now control all eight of their original colony systems, some of which had temporarily fallen under external governance. They have also expanded into a handful of new systems. Prime Consul Kayode Tau, the chief ambassador of the Marlinists, has established formal channels with the [[Alliance Office of Diplomatic Relations]] and the [[Federal Diplomatic Corps]]. The Empire recognises the [[Marlinist Consulate]], but maintains a distant relationship with what many consider to be subversive ex-Imperials. The ceremonial funeral of First Minister [[Jenna Fairfax]] has taken place. Speakers drew attention to her achievements and leadership qualities. In a gesture that many viewed as an olive branch from the Empire, Princess [[Aisling Duval]] attended virtually and spoke of her meeting with Fairfax during the [[Galactic Summit]].<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6128d297a78cbb379110b197 GalNet: Marlinists Regroup in Civil War Aftermath]</ref>

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots Federation ALERT*<br/>The conflict in the Hyades Sector RO-P b6-2 system has been won by the Exiled Marlinist Assembly of Baltah'Sine. Support from independent pilots played a key role in defeating the Marlinism Reformation Party. The faction's entire leadership has been arrested, with their replacements vowing to reshape it along politically moderate lines. Minister [[Octavia Volkov]] made a declaration of victory to the Marlinist Parliament: "The Neo-Marlinists have been crushed and [[Aaron Whyte]] is dead – a casualty of the war his terrorist paymasters began. I deeply regret that our society has suffered this, but have no regrets at destroying the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA's]] political wing once and for all." Prime Consul Kayode Tau sent assurances to the [[Alliance]], [[Empire]] and [[Federation]] that they should view this as "confirmation that the [[Marlinist Colonies]] are your steadfast allies in the fight against the NMLA". [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]] has drafted in extra resources to investigate the Marlinism Reformation Party's ties to [[Theta Seven|Theta Group]], the terrorist bomb-makers responsible for last month's devastating starport attacks. With First Minister [[Jenna Fairfax]] confirmed as among the fatalities, Acting First Minister [[Amrita Ross]] has organised a snap election to democratically appoint a new leader for the Marlinist Colonies.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/611e56b48068c158041d773c GalNet: Anti-NMLA Forces Win Marlinist Civil War]</ref>
