You are ignoring that he’s a politically exposed person, this brings administrative and regulatory burdens that banks might be selective about.
As for the others there’s limited, anecdotal evidence. There’s the bigot that wrote to the bank to complain about rainbow flags. Now I’m old school, if I didn’t like the way a company was operating I’d be leaving them, I’d not be writing expecting them to stop virtue signalling and wait for them to boot me out.
NatWest plc have repeated today their offer of banking services to Farage through their retail banks. It’s difficult to see how he could be considered “blacklisted” for his political views.
