A lively English pub-style celebration was the moment Tony Kay, the United Kingdom’s new Deputy Ambassador to Brazil, was introduced. In a relaxing evening filled with typical dishes and British music, the embassy event last Friday (27) was attended by ambassadors, Itamarti members as well as other officials, journalists and digital influencers.
Guests were greeted with British classics such as fish and chipsBurger, Shepherd’s pie – a typical casserole – as well as a variety of drinks, including Pimm – a gin-based drink with fruits and herbs – and traditional beer. London’s iconic red telephone box was also present, making for great photos to commemorate the moment.
British diplomat Tony Kay took over in July and arrived in Brazil with his wife Dehenna Davison, a former minister and former member of the British Parliament.
He has served in Hong Kong, Eastern Europe, Canada, North Africa and the Middle East. Prior to Brazil, Kay served as Deputy Director for the Middle East at the UK Foreign Office (FCDO), and was also Deputy Ambassador to Israel.
