Err, that's censorship. we dont really know the bar, theres been no putting two and two together and saying what caused it, thats just my interpretation of what couldve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chekhov Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 1 minute ago, melthebell said: it happens all the time, we hear about sponsors removing their sponsorship deals because of something dodgy That is entirely different. A business sponsoring someone is entitled to expect that person to act as the sponsor wishes. These are businesses of great power choosing to refuse customer(s) the access to their services if they hold views which the business disagrees with* and it is utterly appalling. * views which, BTW, were not in the least bit controversial only 10 or 20 years ago and, I would strongly suspect, are STILL the views held by the majority of people. It's the modern authoritarian woke world, we will tell you what to think, and if you do not we will make you suffer for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But bank shutting all ones accounts puts one in a very awkward position with minimal time to do anything about it." Wrong. Farage himself said he received notice that his account would be closed two months ago, so why announce it now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axe Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Nigel Farage has made himself look silly by revealing this news. If he no longer meets the criteria to have a Coutts bank account then he should not make a fuss because he has been offered an alternative bank to use. In these days of a cost of living crisis he is not going to receive sympathy regarding this matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Farage said he had first received a notice his account would be closed two months ago...". 6 minutes ago, fools said: how long do you think it would take to go through 9 bank account applications and refusals Somewhere between "minimal time" and "two months".
