- Nigel Farage, a prominent Brexiteer and broadcaster, claimed that his bank accounts have been closed without given reason, suggesting serious political persecution at the highest level.
- Farage refused to name the prestigious banking group involved but stated that the closures were part of an establishment plot to force him out of the UK.
- Other parties and politicians on the right of politics, such as the Reclaim Party and Reform UK, have also reportedly been denied bank accounts or had accounts closed, indicating a coordinated effort by financial institutions to target right-wing figures.

good. If hes making money from cryptocurrency which I suspect is the reason, hes going to attract money laundering compliance questions, which i reckon he cant answer.
This is precisely what Phil Moorhouse is suggesting. He is saying that one of the reasons banks like Coutts will withdraw their services is because they cannot comply with legal obligations for providing proof of earnings. He also says that Farage is only being rejected by one bank. He can get a another easy enough. This is a typical Farage stunt of crying to the tinfoil hat brigade. The reality is that Farage has made a fortune at our expense. The sooner he makes that promise of leaving the country a reality the better imo.
Nothing to do with his Russian friends… nothing at all
A bank wouldn’t close a persons account due to political allegiance. It’s more likely they’ve been doing dodgy shit.
Farage refused to name the prestigious banking group
The term “prestigious banking group” tends to give it away. These types of banks expect account owners to prove they are a viable investment. So while you are correct, they will not close for political reasons. They will definitely close accounts because he has been unable to gain the political investment he has in the past.
These banks tend to give extra privileges that cost them. But more using accounts like this they are known for their customer evaluation methods. So other rich people know your rough status when you use them.
I remember hearing loads of reports about expensive gifts and use of property from Brexit backing millionaires not long after 2016. So that funding would be enough to support accounts at banks like Coutts. One of the smaller ones. Who are rumoured to drive members to a fancy event. To prove they have £1m in flexible assets every few years.
The truth is at the end of the article. Banks are refusing because he has additional costs attached to himself. This is his ego coming back to bite him. Farage said that this could make him leave the UK. He also said that he would leave if BREXIT was a disaster.
Now you have two reasons Farage, are you gone yet?
