UK PM May denied childish document on plan to announce Brexit deal on Nov 19

BBC reported, based on a “leaked” document titled “Brexit Communications Grid Summary” that UK Brexit Minister Dominic Raab is set to announce the full withdrawal agreement on November 19 and put to parliament. And, according to the document, the Parliament would vote on the bill on November 27.

But Prime Minister Theresa May’s spokesman quickly came out and denied it. The spokesman said “The misspelling and childish language in this document should be enough to make clear it doesn’t represent the government’s thinking. You would expect the government to have plans for all situations – to be clear, this isn’t one of them.”

For your entertainment, here is the full text of the notes:
