Isn’t that what happens every election?

You’re deviating, as you often do.

Nonsense. Monzo currently don't accept business accounts for political parties, along with other types of organisations or businesses.

We can all sleep well tonight. Coutts has offered to reinstate the man-of-the- people's accounts.

The whole country will celebrate. Its been the number one priority for everyone.

Hopefully a papal decree declaring Nige a Saint is on the way. If not, the Pope must resign.

Debanking accusations debunked.

UK regulator finds no evidence of politicians being ‘debanked’ over views

Financial Conduct Authority preparing to release report commissioned after Nigel Farage row

A review by the chief UK financial regulator has uncovered no evidence that politicians are being denied bank accounts because of their views, according to people briefed on the findings.

The Financial Conduct Authority launched a probe in August, weeks after former UK Independence party leader Nigel Farage unleashed a debate on free speech by claiming his accounts with private bank Coutts were about to be closed because his views “did not align” with the lender.

The row over the “debanking” of Farage sparked complaints from other politicians about their treatment by lenders, prompting the government to order a review by the FCA.

People familiar with the situation said the FCA would publish findings in the coming days showing there were no cases of political views being the “primary” reason for personal account closures across the 34 banks and payment companies that were asked to submit data to the regulator. The FCA declined to comment.

The data examined by the FCA covers the period from June 2022 to June 2023.

That sounds like a bit of a get out clause.
It doesnt say its not a reason, just that they made up other reasons to cover their backs.

Indeed. All they’ve concluded here is that if the bank decides it doesn’t like you, that gives it the motivation to find legitimate reasons to bin you.

This whole thing is so overblown. Not quite seeing the hordes of "debanked" people here.

It is clear that the Banks have gone out of their way for Farage given the damage he has done to the country. Being a toxic narcissist, it was always going to be just about him.

Farage has done no damage to the country. He was right about Brussels hegemony and he remains right.

Remainers hate him and presumably want to be dictated to by Brussels. Btw, what specific forecast has he got wrong?

Someone's getting a nice pay off or will how NatWest eventually acted soften any huge pay out... I mean they did try...
