Nigel Farage and The Banking World Update

By Rich Kozlovich

On July 19th, Kurt Zindulka published this article, Nigel Farage Debanked over Ties to Donald Trump and for Expressing Conservative Views, Bank Docs Show, saying:

Nigel ‘Mr Brexit’ Farage had his bank account shut down as a result of his ties to former President Donald Trump, tennis star Novak Djokovic, seemingly spurious accusations of ties to Russia, and his positions on Brexit, vaccines, LGBT issues, and others which were deemed by Coutts bank to “not align with our values”.  Contrary to reports in the BBC and the Financial Times, in which an unnamed Coutts bank source claimed that Nigel Farage had fallen below a financial threshold to maintain his account, a subject access request filed by the Brexit leader shows that the main motivation was actually political in nature.

On July 23, 2023 Kurt Zindulka published this piece, Nigel Farage Ups the Ante: Bank Faces £17.5 Million Fine as ‘Mr Brexit’ Files Complaint over Passing Info to BBC saying:

Brexit leader Nigel Farage has filed an official complaint against the NatWest, accusing the bank of passing his information to the BBC, which initially claimed that he lost his account with Coutts for financial reasons before backtracking to acknowledge that the decision was made in part due to political reasons.........

I followed up with this piece, Leftists Love Blacklists. Whodathunkit!, saying:

Farage is now intending to make this a massive public, political, and moral issue to challenge Big Corporate tyranny and corruption............. it's clear this was a planned, organized and implemented conspiracy among Britain's banking industry to censor and punish political speech, association, and views they disprove of.   A conspiracy in which there clearly must have been a lot of communication between the officers of these banks.  In America that would make it a criminal conspiracy, and a RICO violation.

Yesterday, August 1, 2024, Kurt Zindulka followed up with this piece,  Bank Bends the Knee to Farage: Cancels Closure of Account in Desperate Bid to End Growing Scandal saying:

In an apparent attempt to quell the political firestorm sweeping through the banking sector over its politically-inspired decision to debank Nigel Farage, Coutts Bank now says it will cancel its closure of the Brexit leader’s accounts..............Mr Farage said that while he appreciated the overture from Coutts, he has no intention of giving up the campaign he has begun against the banking industry, having launched a website to organise those who have also been unjustly debanked to campaign for change in Britain.  Most of these people aren’t in my position, they haven’t got the platform, they haven’t got the opportunity to fight back........So if I can speak up for all of those people, we can deal with this nonsense. If we can get ultimately to the position where having a bank account becomes a right in our country, because you can’t function otherwise in the 21st century without it, that would be a real victory.  And that’s where I want to get to. Let’s get politics out of banking, let’s get prejudice out of banking.”

Now that Farage has taken this public, and it's created quite a stir, most importantly, he's not taking this, "Oh, we're so sorry, we'll fix this and it won't happen again" clabber.  He want a face to face sit down with the top executives of these banks and an outright exposition of the facts saying:

“I want you to accept that you’ve taken up an inordinate amount of my time. You’ve cost me a great deal of money in legal fees already, which I’ve used all the way through to make sure that I was dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s,.......But more important than all of that, I want to know how many other people had accounts closed at NatWest and Coutts because of their opinions. And what can we do to make sure that nothing like this ever happens to anybody else in your banking group again?”

The article goes on to point out that are "some 90,000 people in the country are believed to have been designated as “politically exposed persons” by the banks".  

I hope to keep following this as this is the tip of the iceberg regarding an effort to force humanity into obedience to a ruling elite through economic restrictions.  Including cashless societies.
