- Nigel Farage, a prominent Brexiteer and broadcaster, claimed that his bank accounts have been closed without given reason, suggesting serious political persecution at the highest level.
- Farage refused to name the prestigious banking group involved but stated that the closures were part of an establishment plot to force him out of the UK.
- Other parties and politicians on the right of politics, such as the Reclaim Party and Reform UK, have also reportedly been denied bank accounts or had accounts closed, indicating a coordinated effort by financial institutions to target right-wing figures.
good. If hes making money from cryptocurrency which I suspect is the reason, hes going to attract money laundering compliance questions, which i reckon he cant answer.
This is precisely what Phil Moorhouse is suggesting. He is saying that one of the reasons banks like Coutts will withdraw their services is because they cannot comply with legal obligations for providing proof of earnings. He also says that Farage is only being rejected by one bank. He can get a another easy enough. This is a typical Farage stunt of crying to the tinfoil hat brigade. The reality is that Farage has made a fortune at our expense. The sooner he makes that promise of leaving the country a reality the better imo.
He’s been laundering russian money for 2 decades, it’s more likely that the sanctions finally caught him out.
