Scott Meets with UK Ambassador
March 23rd, 2011 by flanewsGovernor Rick Scott will soon be eating fish and chips and shaking hands with bobbies. Today Scott meet with Britain’s US Ambassador Nigel Sheinwald to discuss job creation. The UK is promising to visit Florida’s Space Coast to see if it can’t help save jobs that will be lost because of a loss of federal funds and Scott has promised to embark on a trade mission to England. Sheinwald says trade keeps his country connected with Florida
“The UK and Florida do have a great relationship, there’s a great foundation there, and between us. Huge numbers of people live here, visit here and the life blood of our relationship is our economic links,” said Sheinwald.
The Brits will be in Cape Canaveral sometime next week. Plans are still in the works for trade mission trip.
