Coutts should now lose their banking licence. This is disgusting behaviour. No bank should have the right to refuse banking facilities for political or social reasons. He has been refused banking facilities by 9 other banks therefore these banks should be informed that should there be any further monetary decline which endangers their trading ability they will never receive any further tax payer funded bail out. This also impinges on the Governments digital Banking system, which should now be a firm NO.
I would bet that Couttes did not expect the backlash that has happened. They deserve all the negative impacts and more so.. why can't we cancel Couttes??
If somone gets pushed to far they might crack and shoot one or some of them better the latter , but they mustn't because it.s illegal and we don't do things like that, do we!!
As I undestand it, Coutts bank is part of Natwest. Natwest has a newish CEO, a woman who is so woke and left wing that she has denied loans to the petroleum companies and presumably also put in place these 'political' rules at Coutts. The document from Coutts that states that Nigel Farage's views are not compatible with their (Coutts) values. For values read pro-EU, anti-Brexit, anti-Trump etc etc. , How about banks sticking to finance and keeping thier noses out of peoples political views.
The banks need to be held to account in the only way they understand and that's with massive fines and for them to pay compensation to every customer who has been unjustly treated.
If a Brexiteer supporter sat in the road in front of Downing Street you can be sure the police would spring into action and remove the person causing a public nuisance. Why is Just Stop Oil getting a free run? Come on, Rishi, show some backbone and leadership
How would the banks board feel if the next time they needed an emergency plumber they were told they didn't align with the plumber's values and they will just have to flood.......
@@martynblackburn9632 Nobody mentioned a bank is an "emergency service" the post was about needing a plumber in an emergency i.e. a flood. Where is the "logical fallacy"?
Do they Vet the Employees? If they should happen to impart their views in a Social or Work setting will they then be in jeopardy of losing their jobs and Accounts.
It won't stop them. Even if Government changes the laws the banks etc will just carry on and make up some other reason for cancelling people. They're a private business and are able to pick and choose who they engage with.
People are laughing and saying farage this and that. This behaviour from the bank is farage now, how long until it becomes common place for anyone that disagrees with the bank. Imagine in a few years time a simple option could cost you everything . Farage today, everyone else including you tomorrow
The minute a bank decides to put their political extremism before commercial interests then they should have their license to operate revoked. If the FCA wont keep them neutral then the consumer should by deserting them so they cannot make money.
I am a gay man and I am 100% supportive of Nigel. People go around making these allegations but when asked to produce any examples they can never. Also, most of my gay friends are sick to death of pride month. It is a long bore. I am a member of the free speech union and also funny I know the difference between a man and a woman. I also know that these banks are going to get a lot more scruinty. Do not forget what information are they holding on you. You think your opinions are now correct but in a few years, they will not be. Everyone should support the Free Speech Union as they are at the forefront of tackling this WOKE culture.
We’ll the cashless society we were heading for ain’t gonna happen when banks cancel accounts like this - we are gonna have to have cash as a fall back - no cash no account means homeless and starving.
This is a very serious issue that banks can unperson someone because of their beliefs. No one can defend this. That Chris Bryant is an awful creature, i remember him being vile during covid. A wrong'un.
World economic forum strategy issued in K Schwab's 2nd book - go for the kids via education, and go for Corporations via ESG ratings in order to force political change. Its also about institutional capture to subvert democracy. I wonder if cartels operating to exclude large numbers of customers can be deemed to be in breach of competition law?
Unfortunately, the police won’t do anything about it. It wouldn’t surprise me if they arrest that bloke for GBH or something of that nature again, these idiots getting in the way of normal people trying to go about their daily lives and those are the people that will be arrested. Not these idiots walking around, making a nuisance of themselves.
The values of the bank??? The values of the bank should be good (or great) customer service, high interest rates for savers, hack proof technology systems, etc…. NOT personal values!
Coutts talking about having values? My Uncle worked at Coutts, & the pressure & stress placed on him there, contributed enormously to his death in his late forties. The manor house that he, my aunt & five cousins lived in was owned by Coutts, & they were given just three weeks to leave the property following his death. Those are the kind of values that Coutts had in the eighties, I doubt they are any better now.
The problem isn't people on the left the problem is people on the right, those on the right have spent so long operating in civility that how to handle incivility is a lost notion. By the tenets of individual liberty we neglect the seriousness, the very real seriousness of individual responsibility and its wrapper of consequence. This isn't a case of a rapist, or murderer or event a terrorist. These are people who disagree with civilization and so the people on the right need to recognize that you can't expect a coherent much less civil debate from these folks. In truth they have more in common with terrorists in that a terrorist will use fear as a tool while these people use subterfuge primarily. We look at them and see our countrymen but they don't see the same, so it's people on the right that are to blame for not recognizing the enemy and treating them as the enemy rather that a fellow citizen.
@@Dan-mm1ylThat is not true. A business can discriminate on views and even beliefs religious or not. They are perfectly entitled to deny or remove service if a customer's views put that busines or service at risk. Race, gender, and sexuality, are distinct from views and/or beliefs.
You can have differing opinions but you do not have the right to punish those who don’t agree with you. I can clearly see who you would have supported in the 1930 to 40 in Germany…. You just showed everybody who you actually are…..
Lloyds froze my account twice last year when I tried to transfer money to a Bitcoin exchange. I had to phone their fraud department and listen to a lecture on the dangers of crypto currency before they would unfreeze my funds. After the second time I transferred everything to a WISE multi currency account. Why are the banks starting to over-lord customer's spending patterns. It is a sinister New World we are moving towards.

It's nothing to do with their poxy values, it's because he warns people about CBDC

There is no future cashless society. It's a conspiracy theory dreamt up by extreme right wing NIMBYs.
You think banks or any other financial institution give a stuff whether you're homeless and starving? Not a chance.

Going cashless is another term for turning ordinarily law abiding citizens into modern day slaves.
