'No one should be barred from using basic services for their political views' 🔴 Rishi Sunak says way Coutts has treated Nigel Farage is ‘wrong’ after bank’s dossier on him is revealed
as “wrong” after he obtained a document which appears to show that the bank closed down his account because his views “do not align with our values.”
“No one should be barred from using basic services for their political views,” he wrote on Twitter. “Free speech is the cornerstone of our democracy.” But Mr Farage insisted the bank’s move “had nothing to do with my finances” and that the report found his funds were “sufficient to retain on a commercial basis”.
He claimed bank officials also described him as “xenophobic and racist” and said some of his actions were “distasteful and appear increasingly out of touch with wider society”.
