Banks just do what they like and when they go bust expect the taaxpayer to shut up and bail them out.

So yeah I do think they have a public responsibility otherwise next time they get into trouble we should let them sink just like the cornershop.

It is unsubstantiated spin to suggest that Coutts board members are admirers of Farage.

That some people might allow their personal views to influence their professional ones would be a failure of supervision. Not of the principles involved.

That's totally irrelevant, they didn't have to make that case. They were charged with discriminating against the homosexual-rights agitator because he was a homosexual. Clearly they were not doing that and the Supreme Court agreed.

I knew you wouldn’t understand. The SC overturned the decisions of 2 lower Courts on points of law. We have been through this several times. I am not going to get into it again. If you don’t get it now you never will.
