Disney ends $867m Florida plan

The company's decision was the result of "considerable changes" that have taken place since it was first announced.

Florida is going to lose 2,000 jobs as Walt Disney Co is scrapping plans to relocate their staff because of "changing business conditions" in the state. Currently, the company employed more than 75,000 people in Florida, attracts millions of visitors each year to Disney World, and had plans to invest $17 billion to expand the resort over the next decade.
