No, I'm saying the documents do not sustain the claims. The documents go into supporting Ukraine, e.g. to help them defeat Russian fleet and gain maritime supremacy. However, there's no indication on what I've seen there akin to the claims that they want to "drag out the war as long as possible" and "prepare their own people to live in poverty" (not exact quotes because I'm on phone and I'm afraid to lose this text). These are the authors one-sided and tendentious interpretations of continued support, which by the structure of the article and the way he presents it he makes seem as if they were part of the documents. But they aren't.
UK supports Ukraine. That's a known fact. It'd be insane to believe there'd be no briefings on strategy (whether these came into effect isn't clear either).
Calls it peace plan, then I'm the next paragraph refers to it as "negotiated interim settlement" where Russia gets to hold all of Crimea and the Donbas... and the word peace doesn't even appear in the linked article. Nor any reference to an end of the conflict, and even the word "deal" only about the grain export.
And yet, you're the only one calling it that. I was just stating that was offered and that Ukraine's government declined, asking if you're saying that this wasn't their own decision - which you dodged answering.
