Why was it a PR disaster ? Edited by cryrst (04 Aug 2023 5.59pm) Why on earth would any of those things happen? A bank account was closed. How many people only have one account? How difficult would it be to open another account or make other arrangements? No money has been lost. It’s more of a nuisance than any kind of a major problem.

A big error by a bank that fully justified the resignations. Handing such a propaganda victory to Farage has been painful to witness. He always looks smug but now his demeanour is now so self-righteous it’s really difficult to watch.

There was no discrimination involved with Farage. He wasn’t debanked for his opinions. He was debanked because those opinions were controversial. If they were controversial left wing opinions he would have been equally at risk. Of course, Farage claims otherwise and people like you buy his spinning so there’s little chance of you seeing that.
