UK banks closing down right-wingnut accounts...Farage said he may have to leave the UK

[butters]

Nigel Farage has said he may be forced to leave Britain after his bank closed his accounts and others refused his custom.

The former UKIP leader said his personal and business accounts with a major retail bank have been closed because of a “commercial decision” and other high street firms have refused to allow him to transfer his funds to them.

The decision comes after other Right-wing figures including Richard Tice, the leader of Reform UK, and Toby Young, who established the Free Speech Union, said their accounts had been closed or restricted.

In 2018, the Financial Conduct Authority, the City watchdog, said it was aware that “some banks no longer offer services to categories of customers they deem to be at high risk of money-laundering”.

Is / was Nigel Farage and the “Leave” campaign connected to the Russian money being laundered in the UK???

I know Farage and others at “Leave” had an optically challenged relationship with Russia and with criminal elements in the US.

I think Farage and others in his cabal are deserving of the charge of treason.

The parallels between what happened in the UK and in the US are startling;: And it’s definitely happened /happening elsewhere.

JFC

SAD!!!

Purely a business decision by the banks. It isn't rocket science to follow the money

He may have to follow Trump's example if no other bank will touch him.
Ask Deutsche Direct (Moscow Division).

i don't know

what i can say, though, is that more and more banks don't want to be seen associating with the likes of farage and other right wing nut jobs

Britain's feeling the repercussions of Brexit, as seen by their economy and musical chair government leadership. What's come to pass is what anyone with more than half a brain could see was coming, if they weren't seduced by the lies of Money to The National Health which was never going to happen

He could start a new bank. Or lead the wave of people paying cash and avoiding banks. But litsters may like the new bank idea more, so they can name it.

Uk Banks can be subject to massive fines if they facilitate illegal money transfers.It appears that they are trying to avoid that possibility.

MP Rees Mogg, who famously looks like a cartoon English Twit was only knighted by the outgoing PM Buggerme Johnson in June 2023. Various allegations have been made and suspicions raised about the way Buggerme brown-nosed Russian oligarch and ex-KGB officer Lebedev, meeting him privately when foreign secretary in 2018.

If it talks like a traitor and acts like one... we make them MPs in the UK
