Nigel Farage

Gone to a higher level now with the fucking pm sticking his oar in. Mental.
I'd like to see Coutts come out fighting and say, ''You're a shit-stirring twat and we don't like you so fuck off.''

Better still Coutts parent company Natwest to come out and say in light of them being forced to transact with entities that they do not want to Natwest proposes to close Coutts ( a gesture not a real threat ) - I'd imagine Sunak's arse would fall out at the thought of all that cash being moved out of the UK by Arab royalty and the wealthy to banks abroad where they can find a suitable home for it. Who knows how many MP's have themselves an account at Coutts? Maybe there is a Coutts cheque book and credit card with R Sunak as the account holder on it
 
Well it’s actually a public company, not a private one and in addition the tax payer still has a massive stake in its parent company.
Not sure who you mean by “they” when making the decision to bar someone, the decision will be down to a he or she making a subjective decision,no doubt swayed by their own personal opinion.
Leaving Farage out of the discussion as he is a bit of a side show to an important principle and that’s why it has had so much media coverage.
There is a very important principle at stake , I would not be very comfortable about an individual deciding whether I could have something or not based on whether they agreed with my political beliefs, colour of skin sexual orientation etc etc
If the Bank thought it was acting correctly why did it need to tell lies as to the reason for closing his account.
Oh and before anyone comes on and says it’s because he did not meet their economic criteria I know of at least 3 people who have an account with them that don't meet it either.
Not interested in getting in to an argument with the usual crew about Farage,I already know your opinions of him.
My post is about whether someone should be allowed within the Bank, to become Judge and Jury and if so,they should at least be required to real reasons why they are doing something.
Although about 10 years ago it was fined about £9M for not scrutinising PEP’s on the grounds that those individuals could be money laundering.
The FSA found they were not conducting robust checks on high-risk customers and was then not monitoring those customers, either.
Seems like a contradiction with their decision over NF.
 
Irrespective of having his arse handed to him, his aggressive posturing is just grim to watch (and he shouldn't be anywhere near the media).

One of those faces the most pacifistic of us wouldn't tire in punching (even more so if asleep on a train).

But my god has he managed to fool a fair few people with his chirpy man of the people schtick.

No it isn't. It's a private bank and a private company.

useful distraction from todays byelections for a lot of the media. He could of course take Coutts to court and win loads of money by proving he was wronged.

No wait - he wasn't wronged and he doesn't have the cash - we know that because the thick twat has spread his finances all over the press
