You really are a laughable character. The official Remain campaign spent over twice as much as Leave. Pitiful. Both campaigns were at liberty to get donations from other supporters. I know that. Not the point. Remain was, for good reasons, supported by big business. Leave had the significant advantage of promising jam tomorrow but needed to raise funds from mostly small donors. It ought to have been very poor, but wasn’t. Money came from somewhere.

One of the main Brexit donors was Jeremy Hosking who's a major shareholder at CPFC. Maybe we should be investigated for dodgy investments too. Always felt odd that. Why? Parish was too. I wonder how they both feel today?

I have no inside information. The downgrading to Low Risk is in the public domain as it was part of the dossier Farage obtained from Coutts. If he’s preparing to re-enter politics then he may well be re-assessed but whoever conducts that review will need to do so on a fair and unbiased basis When though was he so downgraded? Does that mean another review cannot take place if internal policy has been revised? It’s simply up to the bank and neither us, nor the client, really has any input. Finding out and making it public might be embarrassing for the bank but doesn’t change their right to take decisions.

Maybe it's you who can't understand there is no difference. In most people's opinion, what you are saying is pure pedantry. I'm inclined to agree with Matov however. There really is no point debating with a village idiot. Unsurprisingly you are another who seems incapable of grasping an important, if subtle, difference. Try again.

The smoke from guns tends to drift away over time, and is always difficult to quantify anyway. That’s why plausible deniability is such a powerful weapon. So evidence, no. Strong suspicion, oh yes! That's alright as long as you're prepared to accept others' opinions without evidence or accusations of believing conspiracy theories.

Finding out and making it public might be embarrassing for the bank but doesn’t change their right to take decisions. Presumably he was downgraded at the last review. All banks have different ways of working so it's hard to second guess how their internal policies are implemented. For example, a Review could be event driven - rather than just becoming due. But I have no visibility over Coutts methodology. You're just re-hashing old ground with that second paragraph, I thought we had established that long ago now. As far as I'm aware nobody has denied that Coutts had the right to do what they did. Just that it was the wrong thing to do.

It ought to have been very poor, but wasn’t. Money came from somewhere. Total tosh as usual. Brexit had wealthy backers, just like Remain. Brexit won. More sour grapes from desperate people who wish to besmirch their opponents. Completely typical of the usual suspects. They drag Trump through the courts on ridiculous charges and accuse him of all sorts. They deluge GB News and its presenters with all kinds of accusations and smears. The same sort of people who brought you 'all Brexiters are racists and stupid'. Get back in your cave. You are the problem.
