    well said Nigel, defender of FREEDOM OF SPEECH, and a right of a bank account at any BANK or FINANCAL group, concentrate on Honest banking to everyone who wishes to have a bank account.

    After the bail out, the corrupt greedy bank CEOs' should have been imprisoned as they were in Iceland. They got between 2 and 5 years, should have been 10 years hard labour. Instead, they are given huge bonuses. Absolutely outrageous!

    Hold on, Nigel having a rant, 2008 was fiscal policy, this is bank rules and regulations. I sense he's trying to say, 'Where can I find a million pounds from?' Why do people stand up for this geek, banks are the good guys, his man is puke incarnated, listening to his ass without a million.

    I'm sorry but if Nigel is politically exposed then so is every single person in the public service and every single person with A political opinion, regardless of that political opinion. Close all the bank accounts of all the people with a political opinion.

    Farage is right we need to have local banks run by local communities like back in the old days , we need someone we can trust in charge of our money and not billionaire banksters who are swindling our cash and investing it in their Cayman islands accounts lol

    SMEAR CAMPAIGN TO DEMONIZE

    Coutts Bank lied to demonize Nigel Farage. The biggest threat to humanity are the 1% Elite Banksters. They now own 90% of the World's wealth and control the other 10%. It dosn't matter which party you vote for. Politicians, lawyers, and the mainstream media live in the pockets of the Elite.They either own or control the mainstream media to propagate their propaganda and demonize any decenting voice. They have usurped the political, legal, and the mainstream media that is the revolving door between these systems and Government. Their Politician and lawyers use Taxpayer's Money which is the source to keep their Cartel Regime in power. They use their unfettered power to start coups and war which nobody voted for putting the whole World at risk of nuclear Armageddon.

    They are a Totalitarian Fascist highly organised Paranoid. Regime that incarcerate true patriots President Donald Trump, Julian Assange, Edward Snowden and any decenting voice of free speech.

    Why let rhese parasites keep you your children childrens' in perpetual debt and austerity all your lives from the cradle to the grave?

    It is now time to drain the swamp. A Nuremberg type trial is long overdue.

    Nationwide closed my account in 2020 because I made comments on how ridiculous the 2m social distancing Covid rules we customers forced to follow and to feel like bio-hazards. They said I was rude to staff, I strongly disputed their assertion, said I was very polite, I was just whinging really, they still closed my account. They became the Covid police ie political.

    OBVIOUSLY what they are doing is controlling what the public can THINK and what the public can SAY. And say, we will ruin your life if you dont say what we demand.
    Really it is a political group trying to take control. A Global political movement trying to buy control. And The banks are helping themselves to the money and pretending it is for "good causes" – when they are rotten to the core. And what is Rishi Sunak doing? Nothing. Because he is taking their money. Renting out our Freedom. They are behind the same thing that is pouring mass imm i gration into the UK to replace its people. So they turn "I would like my own people to exist" into "You hate other people" – a childish bad faith take, and then say because you hate other people, we need to "save the world" and ban you. But what they are really doing

    Nigel

    Again, thank you for standing firm. It is deplorable that these 'banking grifters' have been allowed to get away with this. However, the tide has turned. This will not go away, and Dame Alison Rose should do the right thing and resign because for sure more will come out. The lid has been taken off a dirty bin. The government should do the right thing and rescind her honour. Frankly, we can do without people like her being hailed as respectable members of the public. Nigel, you have been vindicated.

  31. @williamwallace2804

    December 29, 2023 at 10:35 am

    No, the only reason why there is cross-party support for Nigel is simply put as such….'how long before the banks cancel other politicians bank accounts because of there own views', it's as simple as that, I'm in full support of Nigel and want the banks to do what there supposed to and that's protect our hard earned money, that's all they are there for.

    Coutts made a big mistake and now Nigel's public profile has been raised again.
    The last thing the banks want is Farage in politics again. Dame whatever-her-name-is will be forced to resign in the hopes it will quieten Farage.
    Farage needs to run for PM again. I have no interest in these warmongers – Keir Starmer will be no different or he would have been ousted by now like Jeremy Corbyn.

    Three things we could do to get on top of the situation and derail the gravy train:
    1 – form a global, independent, new bank (banking system too), of the people, by the people and for the people;
    2 – Bring David Icke onto GB News to let people know the full agenda of what is really going on – let’s face reality here, the UK is so far down the N.W.O’s rabbit hole that if we don’t act fast, we may not be able to stop the cabal.
    3- Every customer of the banks in question should immediately close their account and go elsewhere.

    December 29, 2023 at 10:35 am

    Why on earth does the government feel entitled to meddle in the private sector? 😅 It's laughable that this so-called capitalist is all for government intervention in businesses operating freely in the private sector. Perhaps the media should get their priorities straight and start addressing the pressing everyday struggles of British citizens, like the skyrocketing cost of living, instead of wasting time on his absurdity. What a disgrace!!!

  42. @gzk6nk

    December 29, 2023 at 10:35 am

    Farage is an awful excuse for a human being. Racist, misogynist, anti-vax, Trump supporter, loud mouthed bully. He thinks if shouts down rational argument he's won. When you strip away the bluster and rhetoric he has no case against Coutts. He is despicable.

Zia Yusuf delivers a scathing critique of both the Conservative and Labour parties, accusing them of failing the British public on immigration and foreign aid. In this explosive segment, the Reform UK Home Affairs spokesperson claims the country has experienced “the biggest wave of untrammelled mass immigration ever seen,” placing the blame squarely on successive governments.

Yusuf outlines why Reform UK is launching a new inquiry into what he calls the “Boriswave,” arguing that border policies under recent leadership have left the UK exposed. He raises concerns about public safety, national priorities, and whether the current system is truly serving the interests of the British people.

The triple lock timebomb and why UK pensions are more at risk than ever before…

In this week’s Chopper’s Political Podcast, Christopher Hope is joined by Tom Harwood and Katherine Forster to examine the growing debate around the UK state pension and the “triple lock.”

With Reform UK now joining other major parties in backing the policy, the discussion explores why the triple lock remains politically untouchable, despite rising concerns over its long-term cost. The panel breaks down how the system works, why it was introduced, and how it has helped reduce pensioner poverty, while also raising questions about fairness between generations.

They also look at the mounting financial pressures facing the UK, including the rising cost of pensions, slow economic growth, and an ageing population. Could the triple lock become unsustainable in the future? And if so, what alternatives might be considered?

BREAKING: Chancellor Rachel Reeves has hit out at President Trump and the US administration following strikes against Iran, describing the move as “folly” and revealing she was left “very frustrated and angry.” Her comments have sparked fresh debate over the global and economic consequences of escalating tensions in the Middle East.

In this segment, Kevin Maguire, co-host of the Pierce vs Maguire podcast, reacts to Reeves’ strong remarks and unpacks what this could mean for the UK economy. From rising energy prices to market instability, the fallout of the Iran conflict could have far-reaching implications for households and businesses alike.
