Wrong spire: UK PM May's office gets wrong city on anniversary of spy poisoning.
LONDON - British Prime Minister Theresa May's office posted a picture of the wrong English city when it sought to mark the anniversary of the poisoning of a former Russian double agent that London has blamed on the Kremlin.
"This was an error which has now been rectified," May said when asked about the picture on a visit to Salisbury Cathedral. Russia has denied involvement in the poisoning, which sparked the biggest diplomatic expulsions since the height of the Cold War. "I'm here in the cathedral which is a great attraction, wonderful things to come and see," May said in a televised interview.
