Friends overseas lead to success on home front

GUERNSEY has been able to adapt well to the change in UK Government because ministers have developed good relations with MPs, according to the chief minister.
Deputy Lyndon Trott (pictured) gave an overview of the importance of Guernsey’s external relations in the States Strategic Plan.
He said the island’s domestic success was dependent upon its ability to engage and trade with the rest of the world.
‘At present this engagement happens at both executive and political level on an ongoing basis,’ he said.
‘By the deployment of resources in London, Brussels and Washington, the island has developed and is actively implementing strategies with the objective of maintaining and enhancing the island’s standing within the global community.’

So, I see Old Trott is bigging himself up again (makes a change eh?!)
I feel very confident that 99% of UK MPs haven’t even heard of Trott, nor would care to.

Why don’t the States just get a private jet for the almighty Trott? It’d probably be cheaper in the long run, what with all his holidays he goes on paid by the tax payer.
